Hi buddy, I think you misunderstood what I meant.......on the thin edge of the fret board where dots are usually located you could add 3mm - 4mm vertical lines at the points where some of the frets may have been seated if it was a fretted neck.
If you play an upright it is a fair bet your ear is well trained to let you know when you are on the right spot or not.

Thank you; yes, I did misunderstand. My apologies.Originally Posted by wazkelly
I did consider "relocating" the dots; scraping out the paint, filling the depressions, and then making new ones in the location as you're suggesting, but I couldn't be bothered. All that's needed is a bit of a guide, and I can cope with that.
With the grounding wire for the bridge/tailpiece, how do others connect this up?
My experience with things electrical, and especially living in an area where old Alfas and Minis corrode as you watch them, is that I am going to tin the end and secure it to the tailpiece through one of the mounting screws, rather than just leaving it as a stripped bare wire splayed out and contacting the underside of the tailpiece.
I'd appreciate the thoughts of others with more experience in this realm.
