Zebra wood neck???????

[phat5]

I have quite a bit of 3/4" thick Zebra wood, enough to laminate and make a 34" scale neck with an angled headstock. are there any pros or cons for using Zebra as neck material?

Thanks, H2

can't think of any pros or cons but the jake kot conklin 7 string that progzilla used to have (can't remember who bought it) had a zebrano laminate neck...

i believe linc luthier uses zebrawood in his necks
but he also has some super special patented construction methods

My Nordstrand SC5 has a center laminate of Zebrawood in the neck. Works just fine. Chris Benavente also uses zebrawood in his necks every now and then.

I would use it for a laminate but not for a whole neck; the stuff moves too much.
