Fretboard blanks from Chacate Preto
guibourtia conjugata
Absolutely my favourite wood, far nicer than any rosewood I've
ever had, works a dream, darkens with exposure to a deeper richer
shade with no loss of figure. Highly Recommended.
Chacate preto is a tree of the gibourtia family which
includes Bubinga and Ovangkol, it's often called
African Rosewood and while having a green tinge
similar to genuine Lignum Vitae when fresh cut it 
darkens to near blank with exposure to air and light,
softer and easier to work than ebony is could easily
be mistaken for a figured piece of ebony, it works very
easily and polishes to a fine finish,
Chacate Preto is a medium sizes tree grown in the
Dalmann forest in north west Mozambique, Dalmann 
are licensed to manage a forest of approximately
ten square miles where they are involved in numerous
community projects as well as planting about five trees
for each one harvested ( about 10000 a year)
