Thanks Simon. Yeh I was on the fence about the fret markers for quite a while but decided that for this particular one I wanted as little as possible disrupting the Sheoak medullary rays.Quote:

Although to be fair my Gibson SG Faded is exactly the same, you basically just look at the body and it gets little dents.Quote:

That's beautiful!
I know you said earlier that you won't play it much, but I hope it inspires you to pick it up more than just once in a while!
Hats off to you, Sir. Superb.
