The Rocklite is pretty awesome stuff. I just got in some Malagasy ebony boards that are so black you cannot see anything in them but pure darkness. It's a rare thing these days and the price reflected it.

I also have made a few oak fretboards and with India Ink you would almost swear it's ebony.

It's common on Selmer guitars to use rosewood for the bridge pieces but to die them black. I personally like the look of rosewood.

I would think it very difficult to stain while on the guitar though. Even taping the top off the stain might just run everywhere.
