Laurel Fingerboard: The Eko ST-400 Choice

The Eko ST-400 features a Laurel fingerboard, a wood valued for its stability and balanced tonal character. Its tonal response offers a solid low-midrange presence and a well-defined attack, while retaining a warm and versatile character. The natural finish highlights the wood grain and complements the satin-finished American Maple neck.
