Mother-of-Pearl Guitar Inlay Blank

These mother-of-pearl guitar blanks are ideal for making decorative inlays for guitar fretboards, necks, pistol grips, knives and other marquetry projects. This natural material provides an elegant, luminous appearance thanks to its iridescent reflections. Each blank is carefully laminated to ensure durability and ease of working.

These blanks are easy for luthiers and craftspeople to use. They are not suitable for CO2 laser cutting but can be worked easily with a CNC machine or scroll saw. Their finish allows secure bonding to wood and precise fitting to your requirements. The natural colors of mother-of-pearl create a subtle, refined contrast against any wood species.

Each mother-of-pearl guitar blank measures 35 x 19 x 1.27 mm, standard dimensions suitable for most lutherie or marquetry projects. The thickness leaves a useful material allowance after sanding, helping avoid damage to the wood of the fretboard or the object being decorated. These blanks are ideal for restorations and original creations alike, for both hobbyists and demanding professionals.
