Abalone is used frequently for fingerboard inlays, headstock logos and decorations. Green Abalone comes from the west coast of North America, the shell has a light pink colour with vivid patterns of green and black lines and great iridescence.
1.25mm thick stock is good for both fingerboard and headstock inlays. Thicker material is better for fingerboard inlays as the radius of the fingerboard will not make the edges too thin.
The blanks can be cut to shape using a jewellers saw. The inlays should be installed into a cavity made by routing or chiseling.
Always wear a dust mask when sanding and cutting pearl as the dust may be hazardous if inhaled.
