What is micarta fretboard

Do they dry out and require some bore oil once in a while???? RustyAxe Member. Messages 3, Donnie B. RustyAxe said:. Wipe with a damp cloth, and then dry. You could clean the finger oil grunge if there is any with naptha, as you would the body finish because whatever you use will get on the neck. Oil will just make it greasy and slimy, as it won't be absorbed. It ain't wood, it's laminated cellulose products linen, paper, etc in a plastic resin.

Great stuff, though, tough as hell, and impervious to most solvents. Messages 10, After playing it a couple of hours last night I could not tell at all that it wasn't wood. Felt great.

Big Martin : OK, I am going to take the anti-micarta side. Guitars have to be very efficient to make the sounds they do and play the way they do.

Every major part is working toward that end and is important. While every trait that Martin lists would seem to point to micarta as superior to ebony forgt the 'mediocre" rosewood , I think they dont go all the way to a proper complete comparison.

Micarta is used on some Martin fretboards Digging on Google a little more, the name "Micarta" is definitely owned by Norplex a manufacturer And the "Garolite" name is owned by McMaster?
