Sure > looks cool. Metal definitely works for fretless. A friend of mine has a metal fingerboard under the lowest 3 strings of one of his Chapman Sticks. Ned Evett simply prefers the tonal characteristic of glass to metal for his personal guitars. Like the difference between glass slides, brass slides, etc. I'm fine with my rosewood-fingerboard fretless - I haven't noticed much wear from the coated strings and sustain is not an issue with the Sustainer circuit.
