Paua Trapezoid Fingerboard Inlays & Position Markers for Gibson® Guitars

Gibson® first introduced trapezoid fingerboard inlays in the 1940s and the design quickly became one of the most recognizable visual details associated with the brand. The distinctive shape has remained a defining feature of Les Paul® guitars for generations, appearing across both Standard and Studio models and becoming an enduring part of the classic aesthetic.

Paua features brilliant shades of blue, turquoise, green, and violet, with intense natural iridescence that shifts dramatically as it catches the light. Authentic Paua is prized for its vibrant color and striking variation, with each piece displaying its own unique combination of swirling patterns, flashes of color and depth. The bold blue-green coloration and vivid rainbow-like highlights create a luxurious, eye-catching appearance that makes Paua an exceptional choice for guitar inlays and other applications where natural beauty and distinctive character are desired.

Includes nine Norlin® crown trapezoid fingerboard inlays for Gibson® and Epiphone® guitars.
