Look at this FRETBOARD!!!

Unread post by PlayLikeDave » Fri Oct 17, 2003 6:53 pm

OMG, ok. I so saw this guitar a while ago after I bought my Washburn. I was crusing their website, and I stumbled across it. It is called a Tahoe something or another. I saw the inlay on the fretboard and broke my jaw on the ground cuz it dropped so fast. Only $1,000 (yeah I just said only. What are you gonna do about it? huh?) Hope you like it

all I can saw is **stares speechlessly**

peace
I love you oh so well, like a kid loves candy and fresh snow.

the only inlay on this post that I like is the tree, still I would like it smaller, and more as just an extra flare. I prefer smaller details that accent a guitar, not take over it, like the first inlay. I love the inlay on Les Pauls, simple boxes, but the boxes have just a little sunbtle detail that makes it beautiful.

heh. i like keeping it simple...the cindy inlay is nice, so is the byzantine, but all of it is still a little much. the one on the martin earlier was just overkill. as for the original one in the thread, it looks decent, but it's a little too impractical for me. i'd rather just have dots, or tiny symbols i.e. snowflakes/stars.

i agree, all these inlays are way too much. i never cared much for fancy inlays like that- makes the guitar look kind of cheap.
