Has anybody here tried using kamagong for fretboards? I'm having a project with mike and i'm choosing either a rosewood or a kamagong fretboard.
From what i've read kamagong is related to ebony right?
But my fear is that it may be too brittle and may crack eventually. The reason i say this is because......... 
i used to be addicted to practicing nunchucks when i was a kid( Don't ask) and
madalas nababasag sya pag na luma na (even though i don't hit anything).
Walang tatawa ha? 
Just making sure my fears are illogical. 
Hi bro. I've had the chance to try two guitars with Kamagong boards which were sourced out locally (I think). One is my brother's custom Harana acoustic, and the other is a strat that team micsis converted to have a kamagong (ebony) board.
I can't say though about their properties when aging, but they do look good. Hahaha! Aesthetics lang. :p
Sadly, mejo mahirap na makahanap ngayon ng pitch black kamagong (ebony). Yung mga recent na nakikita ko ay may mga visible brown streaks na. Although si stewmac, nirerecomment din na gamitan nalang ng ebony stain para maging even yung pagka black.
Anyway, ako rin baka may project with sir mike which will involve a kamagong board. Sometime in the not so distant future.
