avengers63 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I have a project in mind for the future which involves dyeing a maple fretboard deep blue. Actually, it doesn't have to be maple, but maple would be the easiest to acquire. I have no intention of making necks or doing my own fretwork. I have no doubt that an unfinished maple fretboard can be dyed after the fretwork has been done. My question is: what difficulties would I run into when dyeing it after the frets are in?

aidlook Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 won't do much to the frets, just wipe it off. Where will you get the unfinished maple neck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avengers63 Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I'll probably buy it on eBay. Unless, of course, someone here wants to do some work at a reasonable price. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I was envisioning some kinds of uneven coverage around the frets or issues of major bleeding into the neck itself.
