Members knotty Posted February 15, 2013 Members Share Posted February 15, 2013 Slightly OT because the guitar in question is a Faith acoustic. Everything about it is 'perfect' but it has no fret marker inlays. I have never played without them. Should I let it put me off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Patuney Posted February 15, 2013 Members Share Posted February 15, 2013 Dot fret markers are very easy to put on a guitar's neck. Power drill, sharp proper sized bit and superglue are all you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Opus Antics Posted February 15, 2013 Members Share Posted February 15, 2013 You get used to it. I have a Schecter with no fret markers and in very short order you get used to relying on the dots on top rather than on the actual fretboard inlays.

Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted February 15, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 15, 2013 I've had a few customers come to me with this problem. They are usually happy with the Tippex Solution, you can make the dot as small as you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kevman Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 Side dots ftw. If you need inlays though try the stick-on ones and report back. I am curious about whether they get in the way or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
