Birdseye Maple Neck Blank 700x100x25 mm MB Exclusive No. 69
This birdseye maple neck blank is offered as a one-of-a-kind piece within the MB Exclusive line. Each unit is sold individually and matches exactly the piece shown in the images, with its own figure distribution, tone and character.
Birdseye maple features a highly distinctive natural figure, with small marks and subtle waves that break up the regular maple grain. The intensity of the birdseye naturally varies from piece to piece, ranging from dense and striking patterns to more subtle and spaced figure. This variation is not linked to fixed grades, but to the unique character of each individual blank.
These pieces are selected for both their visual appeal and their suitability for building electric guitar necks, prioritizing stability, grain orientation and predictable workshop behaviour. The dimensions correspond to Maderas Barber’s standard format for electric guitar.
This blank is raw wood, with a sanded surface and no finish applied, allowing the luthier to define the neck profile, reinforcement system, truss rod and final finish according to their own criteria.
Why Choose MB Exclusive?
