| Can somone tell me the exact size of a Sho~Bud fretboard including the width at both ends and the total length. I am looking at any of the modern replacements with 26 frets. Thank you. |

I just measured the fretboards from my Super Pro, and they are 18" lg, 2 13/16" at the narrow end, and 3 5/16" at the wide end. Evidently there are some variations.

Harry; Coop and Tom Bradshaw's replacement Shobud fretboard are exact dimensions and calculations of the Shobud plastic raised fretboard.
That particular shobud fretboard was the most precise fretboard made.
They have 26 frets and they are calculated for a 24" scale steel guitar.
