Coolest Inlays Ever???

vengeance52

Came across this on U-Box



I just love the inlay on this. Out of all the various inlays i see on PRS and Ibanez etc this has to be my fave.

Karl Hungus

It's unique to say the very least.

I suppose the best I can say is that I don't hate it, but I don't particularly like it that much.

steveland?

Those inlays are class but I'm not too mad on that guitar... I think I'm just too hard to please...

It's different but tbh, I prefer the flame inlay on the SZ520. Simple but effective.

I like the flame inlay, but i like this cos its unusual and stands out.

Stompbox

Meh,not bad.

Anyway, best inlays are Hetfield's Wolf to Man inlays or his hunting scene on the Ken Lawrence.

Hmm, can't say they do anything for me either.

Kinda hard to see.

feylya

This is quite cool actually.

Meh, neither of those really do anything for me. I prefer the heartbeat one on the Ibanez to those.

MagnumForce

I'd like a waveform inlay, like record a word, and have the graphic representation of the sound waves produced as a result of that word as an inlay, i'd like that indeed. That or a flash of lightning running all along the fretboard from headstock to body

The coolest ever IMHO. Sweet guitar too. Not really into pointy things but I'd have a Jackson Roswell. Maybe a V.

Doctor J

He better hope the band doesn't break up



I like em plain, m'self. Plain or bound with block inlays. Don't really dig the mental inlays at all.

fish-head

Gretsch Neo Classical Thumbprint inlays.. so simple. Killer.

boss^is^dead

meh

call me dull but I love the Jem777VBK green vine inlay....

pretty hot....plus I own one...lol..

Karl Hungus

I think the vine inlays on J Customs are some of the sexiest around:

I like this. One of the main reasons I bought it!

Owen

I've the tree of life vine too, it's gorgeous against the ebony fretboard!

Big fan of the Ibanez TOL with the green leaves, or that amazing acoustic someone posted a while back. In terms of damn purtyness, I love this guitar

feylya

Sorry, but the body looks like something that happens the day after too many beers and spicy kebabs :eek:

Ravelleman

That's pretty ugly alright. Way too much flamed maple.

Frank Bullitt

i quite like sam rivers inlays on his warwicks,green and red LEDs rock

Pah! No accounting for bad taste

Slaanesh

I quite like the PRS Custom 22 inlays ... but then again i'd be biased.

This looks pretty cool. Looks better in a full picture as it continues all the way up the fretboard
