Hi Luke

No, I don't believe there is, but you can easily create this template yourself.

First off, you know you can create a fretwork up to 36 frets long? Check out the following post if changing the fretboard length is new to you.

Once you're happy with the page save it as you normally would, navigate to the Diagram Gallery and locate the page, right click and select 'Save as Template'.

Here's a link to more info on Templates

Hope this helps

Actually, you don't have to go to the trouble of creating a custom template! There's a pretty simple way to do what you want so the answer to your question is actually a YES!

The way the default templates work is that they read your preferences when creating the fretboard, e.g. for default colours, fret numbering preferences etc, including the number of frets and the starting fret.

So, if you want to change your "Frets" preference in the Fretboard section to "22" (note you can control this separately for horizontal vs vertical fretboards) then you'll find the template wizard will pick up your settings accordingly and set up the fretboards with 22 frets :cool:

Actually there's also a good example of defining default preferences in this "Hints & Tips" post from another user which'd be worth checking out:
