No inlays at all on a maple fretboard.

Re: which inlays do you prefer?


No inlays. It looks great but first and foremost it's not as confusing to my eyes while I play as inlays are. I used to love dots but as soon as I tried out a blank fretboard there was no going back.

Re: which inlays do you prefer?


I like inlays where I can clearly distinguish 'dotted' from non 'dotted' notes.

Re: which inlays do you prefer?


i love the offset dots. Or regular dots too. Absolutely no vine of life though! I know I'll get attacked for saying that around here but I can't stand the vine hehe.

I really don't like the sharktooth. I like the guitars that have them, but think they are too over the top for my 31-year-old ass. They look dated to me- like Warrant.
