Necks
With standardization comes efficiency & quality. That is why Tessitura necks are all shaved to a soft, ergonomic shape not unlike that of the mid 1960's C.F. Martin guitars. This "soft V shape" helps keep the players hand in a proper yet relaxed playing position. Whether your touch is light as a feather or tight as a clamp, this shape promotes both a better feel and less cramping of the player's hand. We use the industry standard radius on each of our fingerboards. These will vary depending on what type of neck, neck joint and scale length is chosen.
Tessitura Guitar Works builders can also shape custom necks to match the specs and feel of your favorite vintage instruments.
Neck Woods
Mahogany - For most acoustics & set neck guitars & basses. A Maple heel may be added to a mahogany neck for our "Special Bolt-On" neck joint.
Maple - For any bolt-on neck joint or maple backed acoustics.
Fingerboard Woods
We only use pure, exotic woods for our fingerboards. Plastics, epoxies, or "ebonized" woods are cheap and will only deaden your tone & sustain when used. We're not about compromising our craftsmanship for the sake of capitalism. The price of a fingerboard will vary depending on the figure and grade desired.
Ebony - Elegant & sleek. This wood will not only give your instrument aesthetic beauty & class, it also gives a richer sound & greater sustain than most other woods.
Indian Rosewood -
Pickups

We order in bulk to keep both our storeroom and your wallet full. As always we are willing to order & install any pickup from any company you desire.
