Actually going "custom"

[73roadrunner]

He has block inlays.

For sake of arguement I would order them in black and have them cut a 12th inlay the right size but only be one sticker. Then put them on as instructed. Might look cool with the black over the mother of toliet seat inlays.

For what it's worth I'm going to order a set of trapezoid ones for my BFG just to see if I like it. Then if so I'll actually install some.

Good cheap way to see if you like custom inlays.

mother of toilet seat?

they look pretty good

The inlays "look" OK - but they won't last any time at all. You don't want your fretboard to be so dry that they'll be able to stick to it. You should really have some lemon oil or fret doctor on your board. I suppose that if you put stickers on the actual inlay, and then carefully oiled the board around the inlay, that it might work. I just think that keeping a board so dry that you can put stickers on it is a bad idea.

Hmmm. Turns out I may be selling that Flying V I have with the EMGs in it...

Now I have to figure out what pickups to put into this thing.
Any ideas?

You didn't think epiphones had real shell or celluloid inlays did you? It's just what the plastic inlays are sometimes called

And a highly humorous description, as well

Well its not set in stone yet what I'm going to do. I'm not obsessed with the EMGs, but I do want something a little stronger than what I have. And its nice because I actually already have them.

This outta help...

Upgrading EMGs to 18 volts

OK so now I'm looking for new pups since I sold that other guitar.
I was thinking of going with a Dimarzio super distortion in the bridge and the DP 103 PAF 36th anniversary.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions for pups?
Also, are my pups regular or f-spaced?
