Ok folks. What is your choice/method for filling tuner screw holes or string tree holes on a headstock?
Quick backstory, I was getting a nasty overtone from the G string on my Warmoth build. Has staggered tuners, nut is cut with good break, but the overtone was still there. I tried the modern string trees that are on some Fenders (screw hole and dimple) but didn't like the break angle. I ordered a three string tree that works for the E,B,G strings with one screw hole. It works great and minimized it to satisfactory level. But, there are a few other holes that I'd like to fill (two from the G,D tree I put on - dimple and screw hole) and one from the dimple of the previous string tree between the E,B strings.
1. Small maple dowel sized down and to match the grain
2. Wood filler
3. Toothpicks
4. Epoxy
5. Sticker
6. Band-Aid
7. Other
