Maple Rosewood
Posted June 20, 2008

What are the main differences between a rosewood and maple fingerboard on a guitar neck?
I'm just wondering about the difference in sound and wear.
I have to disagree with the above poster. Maple is a light colored wood and Rosewood a dark brown. I'm not sure I understand how Rosewood could look brighter. Maple absolutely SOUNDS brighter on a fretboard than Rosewood. A lot of Fenders use Maple, hence the bright, jangly tone commonly heard from them. I have a few guitars with Maple and more with Rosewood. Each has their unique feel. Neither is "better" than the other, but are useful to acheive different tonal variety.
