The material used for the manufacture of Corene™ offers the following specificities:

​

• A look, feel and finish virtually indistinguishable from ebony in its color and structure
   

• Resistance to acidity found in hand and fingers perspiration, reducing the need to correct the surface of the fingerboard
   

• Excellent dimensional stability, not affected by humidity and temperature changes  
   

• Mechanical characteristic comparable to ebony, providing strength and the sensation of uniform elasticity, especially in higher finger positions
   

• Surface hardness and mass volume equivalent to ebony, qualities essential for a sharp and clear tone

Corene™ fingerboards can be worked as ebony; the material is completely homogeneous which makes it very pleasant to work with traditional tools and traditional violin making methods.

Corene™ fingerboards are designed in Switzerland, machined with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 mm and supplied with all the finely visible surfaces, black ebony, uniform and revealing a slightly veined structure.
