    "There's something about this that's so black, it's like how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black."

I want to change the fretboard among other things. My question is what type of paint should I use to stain the wood of the fretboard? Any oil or something of that aniline type?

    Bellissimo; ma quando un video in cui ne fate sentire il suono e le caratteristiche come si deve? 😉
