Hello!
I have a neck here from a 60s Holiday H-45 that is a 24" scale. When I bought the guitar, the neck was without a fretboard. My problem is that I cannot find a fretboard with this scale length. Where could I find a slotted fretboard (preferably rosewood) with a 24" scale length? Could I modify a 24.75" scale, a 25" scale, or a 25.5" scale fretboard from stewmac? I would like to avoid slotting a fretboard myself because I am afraid I will screw it up somehow. Thanks for your help
-Finn

I'm pretty sure our very own Andy Birko, a OLF sponsor, http://www.birkonium.com/ could cnc you a perfect fit. He does beautiful work.
He's custom made me a few boards that have worked beautifully.
