This is a book? No, not aware of it... you recommend? ...and Deception Point?
Tis... haven't read the Bond book, yet... but Deception Point isn't bad.
And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming.
Wait wait wait, is this thread "Show us your Bonds"?!?!?!?!

So.... Eventually the fretboard needs replaced, but only if the builder is still in business/alive?

Nah. Forty years from now we'll all be doing CF in our garages....
I'll be 92. I hope to see this day.
Hmm. Someone needs to make carbon fiber strings a thing. Problem solved!

An interesting take on a fret-board. Seems like it would allow bending by depressing like on a scalloped fb. Never knew anyone who played one.
If the peaks were stainless steel - it would be a cool.

Nice! What are the controls? And is it active?
Cimar Stinger (Japan, 1980). Always wanted an Ibanez Blazer in exactly this finish ('traditional violin'), but those are no longer 'up for grabs'. The Cimar is good, though, really good. And I think the 'Super B4' pickup looks great. It surely sounds terrific.
