I bought a used Gretsch G5715 lapsteel. It is in prefect condition, except for the fretboard. Some of the black fret and position markers are partly "rubbed off". The fretboard is attached with six screws, so it would be easy enough to replace. But where to find a replacement fretboard? I have no idea who would make or sell them.

Maybe one of these will work? Don't know the exact details of your steel (scale, etc)...

The middle Gretsch is my workhorse..
with a whole section of 'no-line' fretboard.
