fretboard
This term is specific to stringed instruments with frets, most commonly guitars, banjos, and mandolins. It refers to the physical surface of the neck. While often used interchangeably with "fingerboard" in casual conversation, "fretboard" specifically emphasizes the presence of the metal frets embedded in the wood.
In a technical or luthiery context, the fretboard is a distinct component that is glued onto the neck of the instrument. It is typically made from dense hardwoods like ebony or rosewood to withstand the constant friction and pressure of the player's fingertips.
