There's lot more discussions on tonewood these days ever since PRS said it makes such a huge difference, which is really BS. You can say everything makes a difference, but it is a matter of DEGREE. Pickups and electronics, and the signal chain downstream make much more of a difference sonically on an electric guitar than the fingerboard wood!
Here are some YT videos, both strengthen the argument that a Rosewood fingerboard is "warmer." Yet the differences are subtle and can easily be matched using a small amount of compression or EQ on the amp. Not to mention any changes in pickups, pickup height, etc. Get the fingerboard that feels and looks best! But not for any sonic difference.
