Richlite Rosedale Guitar Fingerboard, 20" long, unslotted
Inspired by Rosewood, which is now protected worldwide, no longer available to consumers to use for their guitar fretboards. Low maintenance, minimal shrinkage, and a density that is right in the middle of the range for ebony, there are only advantages to using Black Diamond Richlite on your guitar. Two-part water-resistant epoxies formulated for thermoset resins or phenolics are recommended for gluing (most other adhesives will not be appropriate for use with Richlite). We suggest System Three T-88 for structural bonding. Loctite E-30CL or Devcon DEV-20845 5-minute epoxy is also acceptable.
Subtle layers will be visible as “grain” on the face of a radiused fingerboard in this color.
Dimensions: 20" x 2.75" x 0.3125" (686 x 70 x 8mm)
Make sure the joint gluing surfaces are roughed-up, 100 grit or less, for better glue adhesion. Do not over-tighten clamps to keep enough glue in the seam.
