Show Me Your Birdseye FRETTED Fingerboard.

Sign in to disble this ad
There is a thread for Birdseye Maple Fretless fingerboards,...but not Birdseye Fretted.

Show me your BEM Fretted Fingerboards please! I'd like to see the entire bass so I can get an idea of what body colors would look good with the BEM fretboard.

I have one, its a Warmoth neck that is now one of the parts left over from parting out a franken 5er.



Sorry this one is blurry. I have to take a couple more because I need to re-list the neck in the classifieds. Its 100% BEM-shaft and FB.

Thank you

I'm trying to get an idea of what body colors other than black go well with BE Maple fingerboards.

Ah, OK, here's one when it was attached to the mahogany body it came with originally.

Both those boards are sexy!!!!

The dark orange on the Peavey is nice. I initially wanted an bright pearl or candy orange but I'm leaning in a different direction. Perhaps butterscotch blonde.

I love the brown/tobacco sunburst on the MM. Sexy.

Keep em coming lads.

I don't have the best camera but this shot kind of gives you the idea. Also, clicking on the image enlarges it.

Since you're okay with guitars and you asked for blonde:

Squier '51. Maybe more of a TV yellow. I don't know why they stuck a birdseye maple neck on a $150 guitar, but I'm okay with it
