Hey ALl,

I just bought the very first two stabilized leopard wood fingerboards that Gallery Hardwoods produced. They ship tomorrow!

Here is a pic from Larry of the rough boards!



Very similar to snakewood in appearance, but much easier on the wallet!

Wasn't there a recent thread where Ken Smith or someone else said they were the same?
