Is it possible to change the fretboard on a PSG from black to white? It looks like it is a thick plastic sticker.
Do these things vary by manufacturer or are they standard - looks like the plastic piece is just mounted up against the nut frame.
Is there a place to buy these?
Thanks |

Landon,
Different scale lengths are used. Measure the length from the center of the fifth fret to the center of the twelve fret and multiply that by four. That will give you your scale length. Do a search on this forum and you probably will find people who will make you a new fret board. I know Jim Palenscar makes a great fretboard. RP

Anything is possible with the right scale fretboard. I like the white fretboards also. |
