If there's body binding as well, it fits because the "outline" motif flows over the whole body, but if it's just a bound neck/head with dots, it just doesn't work for me.
I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.

Yeah, that's why a Rhoads with pinstripes or bevels of diff.color looks so killer But i like bindings on a "plain" body as well.

The truth will seem utterly preposterous, and its speaker, a raving lunatic."
I think Vai used to have a pink Jackson with a bound fretboard and dot inlays. I always thought that it looked pretty cool. I believe he posed with it in some early DiMarzio ads along with Billy Sheehan. I assume this must have been pre-Ibanez.
dots look like shit on rosewood or ebony but they are AWSOME on maple.
Yeah I agree with that, maybe it's the image of the first teles stuck in my mind but to me, a maple neck with no binding and dots looks classic and hotrod like, but dots in a rosewood neck with or without binding just looks boring.

That's a killer V but Gibbie does not make them anymore with dots and neck binding...thing they stopped this in like 77 or 76 maybe? I can check but I am pretty sure it didn't make it into 81 (I could be wrong) so is that an older neck superglued onto an newer body?
Unless of course you want an "Epiphone" version :ROTF:
