I have shopped around and here are some prices for doing an Ironwood. I had a luthier look at it, and for stainless steel frets, $700, job would be done in 6 months (he's very busy).

UPDATE : The guitar has finally been returned to me. The good news is that they put on a new neck. Not just a replacement fretboard. Stefan also included a gig bag and extra strings at no cost. Which was very nice of him. My only complaint is that the setup (action) was horrific. It looks like it w... |

I always wished they could have had the Railboard 8 have the same Bridge and Nut set up, instead of having that massive gap running down the center While we are on this subject ... yes, i think the Railboards have a fairly important omission: An 8 string with equal string spacing, intended for tuni... |

I'm the bass player whose right hand adds some chords and an occasional solo in a trio that plays original tunes and standards in fusion style. The other two are a guitarist that leans toward Holdsworth and a drummer who provides the "Rock" in Jazzrock. Tunes we play include Wayne Shorter... |

When they don't "tune" is when I go. This set is lasting forever. I usually come up with some excuse to change them, but these have been tuning up nicely for long after the usual "they sound dull" period. And this set has been thru hell-I dropped the Stick "face-first" ... |

I tried holding the Stick in that position, to alleviate l.h. problems. Then I can't reach upper positions (where I play alot) Just doesn't work for me. And w/ the back problems, vertical is the only way. Love the groove of Latino! |
