    Before starting the fret leveling I noticed an issue with a fret marker. Anybody have any ideas on a fix, or just replace the dot inlay? It's a very small chip out of the inlay. First time I've noticed it.

    I haven't ever done this, but I have seen chipped markers repaired by mixing some abalone dust with CA glue, filling the chip and sanding smooth. The dust is really bad for you though, and new marker dots are cheap, so probably easier, cheaper and safer to just replace it.

    Others with more experience may have a better idea
