The strip of wood or other material glued to the neck of a stringed instrument, such as a guitar or violin, on which the strings are pressed to change the pitch. / A small skateboard designed to be manipulated with the fingers rather than ridden with the feet.
Noun
pl: fingerboards

In the context of musical instruments, this term is a technical specification referring to the physical surface of the neck. It is often used interchangeably with "fretboard" when discussing fretted instruments like guitars, though "fingerboard" is the more precise term for unfretted instruments like violins or cellos.

In a modern recreational context, the word refers to a specific hobbyist item. This usage is distinct from "fingerboarding," which describes the activity of performing skateboard-style tricks on a miniature scale.
