Mine has a rosewood fretboard on it... only because someone bought a MIM Fender P-Special neck w/maple fretboard before I could.

|  | Bass player for Christ! | | | | | Mine has a birseye maple neck and fretboard along with a pearloid white pickguard. Best look there is for Shell Pink in my opinion.

| | | Well here's my shell pink 62 Jazz w/ Rosewood and Clay dots
As well as what it'll look like with a tort guard.
Then you need to get Mungibunga to post a pick of his, he has a gorgeous Lakland with maple neck and pearl blocks & guard.
Personally I think both look great and really you can't go wrong.  |
