Maple is a classic neck wood prized for its density, stiffness, and stability. It offers a snappy response and clean vibration transfer. Its medium weight and closed grain provide excellent resistance to warping. Maple is highly reliable for precision neck construction and offers a bright, clean visual aesthetic.
Fretboard : Indian Rosewood
Indian Rosewood is a dense, oily hardwood with a naturally smooth feel. Its open pores provide excellent grip and tactile comfort. Highly stable across climates, it resists wear and moisture absorption. Its dark brown hues often feature subtle figuring, giving fretboards a warm and classic visual appearance.
