Mosaic pin fret markers

[JollyRoger523]

A while ago I was looking at a knife making supply website. It just now hit me that the mosaic pins used for knife scales (handles) would make for some awesome fret markers on the right build. A google image search didn't turn up a whole lot of results for these being used as fret markers. Anyone ever see anything like this?

Here's a quick internet image if you don't know what I'm referring to with the mosaic pins:

That could be awesome. These days, playing a lot in low light conditions, I'm thinking a little more utilitarian with glow in the dark markers becoming more appealing.

I like it... I'm a sucker for any kind of fancy inlays!

Love it... definitely cool on some builds, just a matter of using them tastefully.

That will be hard for me.

Does anywhere do wood mosaic handle pins?

Also you could fill the holes with glow resin.

Yeah, Ive seen those used. A cool guit that I saw awhile back had the bottom part of bullets used as fret markers. The knobs were the cylinder from a revolver..
