Martin Barre Notes

They came perfect from the factory, and I hope they stay that way. Guitar is my 7th instrument, and I still have a lot to learn. I'll leave anything other than simple maintenance to a guitar tech.

"Filthy McNasty" - Horace Silver

Paul Desmond Notes

I got more fret wear on my old guitar than freboard wear. It was an LTD faux-les-paul. My Parker came with hardened stainless steel frets, and I've been gigging that guitar for a few years and it still shows no fret wear. Guitar is my 7th instrument, so I'm sure I'm doing a lot of things wrong. I play it on about 1/3 of the songs we do, depending on the gig it could be more or less. I played bass for a few years, so the freboard wasn't exactly a stranger. Sax/wind synthesizer gets the bulk of the rest of the songs, a couple on the flute and vocals on about half our songs. Of course that has nothing to d with ebony fretboards For the experts in guitar maintenance: How often should I oil the fretboard? There- back on topic. Insights and incites by Notes

Earl Scruggs Notes

My custom shop Parker DF522NN has an ebony fretboard. There is a little streaking in it. I think it gives it more character, and it's as smooth as slik.
