Yeah, it's quite a dark fretboard. I haven't really got to sit down with it much, as I sent it over to my local shop to get a good setup. I suspect that the fifth fret may need some slight leveling, and I'm not confident that I could pull that off myself. I'm chewing my fingernails waiting to get it back, though!

Just curious why the fingerboard would not be finished?

May have had a re-fret job. Some people don't like the finish on the board.

yes,when i got my 4000 refretted,most of the fingerboard finish gloss was knocked off,but i was told it could be buffed back to having the sheen if i wanted. I have not gotten around to it, i kind of liked the look at first. if i change out the tuners,i will probably buff it back.

You can leave it Woody, thanks in advance.

thought maybe it had something to do with being refretted. Any chance it could have been a special order?

Maybe it looks a little dark but not bad.

Sweet deal. Love V63s. I have a 99 V63. I would have liked the longer headstock, but I'll live. Beauty bass. Mark
