Fretboards: Maple or Rosewood?

[Jahuli]

i dont have much experience with maple but is it faster and easier to play on than rosewood or what?

[sammysucks65]

rosewood rocks but maple shows wear more...which rocks. i prefer rosewood due to the certian warmer qualities.

I don't think one is faster than the other one. There is such a thing as faster necks, but I attribute that more to shape than I do what wood the fretboard is made out of.

The only complaint I usually have with maple is when they are coated they can feel a bit sticky when you are sweating a bit. Nothing a little sandpaper won't take care of though...or just get it unfinished.
