Good job Sharkfin! Where did you get those nice inlays?
I'd like to do this to both of my JS guitar necks.Comment

That was the plan but I may leave those alone! But who knows...Originally posted by toejam View PostNice job! Now take out the side dots and do the same thing...
These guys here have great products, very reasonably priced and fast turnaround in my experience. I only needed 10 dots for the project but ordered 15 just in case. I'm glad I did, because some of them were straight duds compared to the figuring of others.Originally posted by BenoA View Post

Wow. Those look great!Comment

Don't you need to radius sand the board now? Do they catch under the strings?I feel festive all year round. Deal with it.Comment

Nah, you can scrape the inlays flush. Easier to do with the frets off, sure, but definitely doable with the frets in.Comment

What did you use for glueing these? Any special glue needed?Comment
-
I use medium viscosity CA glue for inlays. Krazy glue works just fine. Add a couple of drops, let it flow into the inlay pocket, gently press the inlay in place, and you're good.Comment

Sully is spot on. It's all on the video

Thanks, I'm still in the process of leveling the inlays. I was only able to finish leveling one inlay before I had to leave for a trip. I'm hoping to finish it all up when I get back next week. I'll be sure to leave tip for anyone who plans on going through this process.Originally posted by veemagic View Post____________________________________________
