Parts of Birdseye Maple fretboards on my Fodera Yin Yang Deluxe and F Bass BN5. If I had a choice, my Jazz would also have a maple board. I LOVE maple boards...of the 4 Strats I have, the 2 with maple boards are my favorites. Nothing wrong with a nice Brazilian fretboard :D but there is just somethin' about maple...

Loves me some maple boards! Lots of good wood here guys, I especially like the quilted orange Sadowsky on page 38 and the white stingray with gold hardware way back on page 31. I don't even like stingrays but I could look at that one all day long!

Built these mahself =)

Hey Jeff, nice bass...did you finally sell the Gretsch, or the Blizzard Pearl bass you mentioned having.

Hey Roger. Just stumbled upon this and saw your question. (Better late than never, huh?!) :D

Yeah, I sold the Gretsch back in late-August. Still have the Blizzard Pearl '08 Am. Std. Jazz. Not the best-looking bass in the world, but she sure does sound good! I never did put it on the market, and probably won't.
