Wow, do those 481's have *any* fretboard curvature?

I think they match the curvature of the Earth, so yes, there is a radius to the fingerboard.scott_s wrote:Wow, do those 481's have *any* fretboard curvature?

Flat. Dead flat, just like the Earth.

A cool feature...a strong light source gets those side dots glowing bright red...
Anyway, it hasn't had its final sanding and buffing, so it looks a bit bumpy. Rest assured it will be glass-smooth before assembly and shipping!

My 430 has the same flat fret board. One gets used to it fairly quickly. It's actually quite nice, and very good for slide setup.jps wrote:I think they match the curvature of the Earth, so yes, there is a radius to the fingerboard.scott_s wrote:Wow, do those 481's have *any* fretboard curvature?
