Brankowood® FSC 100% Black A+ Fingerboard 530x70x8 mm
The Brankowood® Black fingerboard is a sustainable and stable alternative to ebony, with a homogeneous, elegant look that reproduces its classic aesthetics. Made from FSC 100% certified Pinus radiata and stabilized with natural resins, it provides a durable material that is moisture-resistant and very uniform in color.
Compatibility by size: at 530 x 70 x 8 mm it suits electric (22–24 frets), acoustic (20 frets), archtop, and classical guitars. The finished fingerboard typically measures ≈460–520 mm, so 530 mm leaves room to adjust. The 70 mm width covers 42–52 mm nut widths, and the 8 mm thickness allows radiusing or a flat classical surface.
During production, moisture content is reduced in a controlled process to approximately 5%, ensuring excellent dimensional stability even with climatic changes. Its density approaches that of ebony, providing comparable acoustic properties and a firm feel under the fingers.
Thanks to the material’s homogeneity after stabilization, this stabilized fingerboard offers very favorable workability: it sands and finishes easily, reducing the risk of chipping or grain variation.
