Guitars with NO fretboard inlays?

mcmurray · 03-11-2009, 01:31 AM

Show us your guitars with no inlays guys. I'd like to know what's available?

My next guitar will not have them on the fretboard, they sh!t me. I don't mind the ESP style with small dots near

the edge of the board though.

Does Gibson still make the platinum les paul studio? I'd be interested in one if it's chambered.

The BFG doesn't have any inlays, I know that. I don't know about the platinum studio, though.

Good luck with your search!

No inlays on the Les Paul BFG

Thumbnail inlays on epiphone country deluxe elitist (I played one of these, it was AWESOME):

Is the BFG chambered?

yeah, chambered

BFGs are chambered, but they're not traditional Les Pauls anyway, so I don't worry about it.

My warrior instruments prototype has a bare ebony board sans their traditional sword inlay at the 12'th fret.

I really like those too...just a word of warning...never speak of such things on a Gretsch forum....

I'd still rather have one of these though....

The first LP Swamp Ash Studios had an ebony fretboard with no inlays.
Here is a shot of mine before I sold it. It was made in 2003 I believe

Yamaha RGX A2. Pretty nifty little guitar, and some websites have been selling them on blowout recently.

I don't have one, but to me, the best looking no inlay ax is a Phil Collin Jackson.Jackson_purple.jpg

My Gadow only has dots at the 12th, but Ryan will eliminate those too if you want.
