We called it incomplete because occasionally, we find some beautiful top sets with a unique wood figure that may meet your expectations about a very special guitar (some examples you can see on our Instagram), so don’t hesitate to ask about the availability of limited top wood.
Below you can find an incomplete list of the woods that we offer. So, when creating your dream guitar remember that we’re here to help you.Īt Skervesen Guitars we source all wood from certified companies from various parts of the world. The choice of wood for your custom Skervesen guitar is an important decision that affects the sound and final look of your future instrument. That might sound kinda fussy, but it's so much nicer and easier to work with nice flat stock, especially with a fret board.
Whether its cut it now or later, I'd probably use 3 stickers (1 towards each end and 1 in the middle) between the individual boards and sandwich the package between two flat and straight boards with some weight on the top and let it sit for awhile and give the moisture level a chance to balance out to your area. I always like to have some extra width so I can shift the fret board around a little bit to get the nicest grain orientation and avoid any ugly along the edges.
It really depends on the billet and what type of saw you'll be using to re-saw it how wide the kerf is and how straight the cuts are. I think, depending on how the billet looks, I might cut one slice 2-1/3" wide from the best looking side, and then cut the remaining ~3" wide billet into four or possibly five more fretboards.Ĭutting it that way, depending on the grain orientation, might give you 4 flatsawn boards and 1 quarter-sawn board or vice-versa.
As already mentioned, 2-1/3" is cutting it mighty close, you might have as much as an 1/8" to work with on a Tele fret board.
