Which do you have or like the most of either Neck/Fret wood(s)? I prefer Maple Neck/Fret. Has anyone sanded their necks for smoothness?

I like them both, but replacing the frets on a rosewoodboard
neck is easier and cheaper, no refinishing needed.
I like Tele's with a one piece maple neck.
Strat's with rosewood fingerboard.
I sand my necks with ''0000'' steelwool.

I prefer a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. I like the sound and feel of a rosewood fretboard.
