Black African ebony is a traditional wood used for centuries in musical instruments making. Due to its acoustic and mechanical properties, ebony is mainly used as a fingerboard, but also as headstock veneer, parts of laminated necks or parts of accoustic guitar body. The best quality black ebony is growing in western Africa, unfortunately owing to many years of cutting of these trees and the lack of a proper plantation balance, the wood is more and more difficult available and more expensive. Hard sounding and fast-rising ebony sounds are highly valued by jazz musicians, heavy metal musicians, guitar shreders, and by musicians wishing to have a universal, classic instrument, especially if the ebony fingerboard is composed together with a mahogany neck and body. Currently black ebony is not completely black, but has gray or brown streaks and discolorations. Often, violin makers and instrument makers use dedicated dyes to make it totally black. The top-grade piece of long-seasoned natural black ebony for a fingerboard can be very expensive. The wood is very heavy, very hard, compact-scructured, virtually free of pore, abrasion resistant, and performs well in stringed instruments. After final sanding (can also be polished) is very nice, velvet to touch, "quick". Black African ebony is a demanding, but lively and grateful wood. Black African gold.
