No, no, no. You NEVER marry an Ashlee.* Ashley? Sure.

But all other spellings? Just take your tugjob under the bleachers and hope she doesn't ask for cash afterwards.



*Unless your name is Travis, Chad or Something Ray. But when that's your name, Ashlee is probably your sister, so...

Hey that's his wife your talking about [emoji14]

I'm kidding but Yea, it's his wife's name. All of the models he has done are named after friends and family and such

Haha, I won't be naming her that.

It's like adopting a puppy, the shelter may call them something, but if they are young enough you can rename them.

Now I have to name her..damn it. I can never think of a name I like. People names get awkward if you know someone with the same name.

Keep it simple. No inlays is cool, dots are ok too. Gibson's trapezoid inlays are just ok. Too fancy inlays or bindings or whatever looks **** imo. If they're forming images like animals or flowers or dragons whatever... I hate that. No-go for me.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever guitar shopping for you.

That site is one of my favorite time-wasters! Here's one of my favorites:

Go to this link instead (it's the page BEFORE the Les Paul one) if you want to be able to do an SG as well.

While I would not personally want this on my guitar, I think this is an awesome inlay!

Re: Opinions on inlays

What color is yours going to be? That might factor into it too. I like those small diamonds on a black axe. A brighter finish might need inlays that stand out a bit more. Perhaps trapezoids in wood rather than pearloid, if the guitar were brown or honeyburst.

Nice, I'd probably vote for the small diamonds. Or maybe mini trapezoids; Gibson put those on LP Specials for a year or two and I think they looked understated and pretty cool.
