I have a customer that wants an inlayed fingerboard from www.custominlay.com on the guitar I build for him.
He wants there to be as much figure in the board as possible. At Custom Inlay Inc. you can choose Rosewood or Brazilian Rosewood. Is Brazilian rosewood likely to look a lot better and have more figure?

Colby if you can supply your own, I just got some really nice figured Madagascan rosewood from LMI.

Thanks Bob,
Thanks Colin,
I didn't think about that. I'm going to contact them and see if I can supply my own board.
