    Richlite Fretboard Blanks | Unslotted Guitar Fingerboards

    A dense, durable and versatile solid paper composite material with a leathery feel in deep, solid colours. Part sheets are ideal for prototypes, small CNC beds and smaller projects which don't require a full sheet, and this size is particularly useful as a blank for producing guitar or bass fingerboards as well as small objects like keychains and knife handles.

    From fingerboards to stage flooring, Richlite is a sustainable and durable alternative material for the music industry; common applications for Richlite include fingerboards, bridges, speaker enclosures, practice drum pads, drumsticks and stage flooring. 

    Acoustically superior, the material has a consistent density, is inherently stable and moisture acclimated. Incredibly durable, Richlite has a similar look and feel to ebony and is made with post consumer waste recycled or sustainably sourced rapidly renewable paper. With high impact resistance and a greater span than wood products, you can machine the material with standard tooling - fret slots can be cut with carbide or diamond cutters, and the slots should be cut slightly wider because of the density of the material. Fretboards made with Richlite are easy to maintain by wiping clean with a soft cloth as needed, and withstands re-fretting without chipping. 

    All blanks are rough cut, unslotted and unfinished to 508 x 70 x 8mm and are typically stocked in Black Diamond, Browns Point, Rosedale, Maple Valley, Redstone, Blue Canyon, Chocolate Glacier, Grays Harbor and R50.
