Is Snake Wood a real?

I think he's meaning Lacewood, but Warmoth only seem to offer that wood as a laminated top for a body, not as a fingerboard. Doesn't mean you can't change things around to accomodate it.  :icon_thumright:

Nope, I meant Snakewood.

I checked out that link and I think that's a rad idea!
I also found a company that specializes in woods and they even offer "fretboard blanks"
Www.bellforestproducts.com
Www.bellforestproducts.com/fretboard-blanks/

UNfortuantley, Snakewood is not listed...is it because the description says it is too brittle?
What would the tone sound like?
How would I be able to coordinate a snakewood fretbloard with the guys at warmoth?
