The shop will have been lazy and done a Google search for details and identified that (fretted) fingerboards are maple or rosewood... not many fretlesses so they likely won't realise that they would be ebony.

You can be so harsh John :)

I think the shop took this bass in as a part exchange and were told it was rosewood by the owner who'd had it some time.

Generally they wouldn't take something apart that's been bolted together for a long time for fear of woods moving around and unsettling the general feel and action.

I have a feeling they will stand corrected and update their policies in the future :)

Fair comment. :D

It is a bit lazy not to look at a fingerboard and decide for yourself BUT saying that I'm not doing it commercially (contrary to indicators :lol: ) and I'm sure they have more pressing matters than to check detail that customers give them. ;)
