i agree with the comments about the gold... maybe a step too far but the dragon(s) does look less OTT than i expected.  i quite like the design

but still, the only dragon inlayed guitars i could really go for look like this


 no CNC dragons for me!!!

I think it's great - yes, over the top, but I think that having EVERYTHING - the inlays, the binding, the gold - actually suits the overall guitar.

Cracking.  I love Indies.

Agreed completely. It's worth doing, it's worth OVERDOING!

I've seen these before and I love the inlays , but find the Gold a bit of overkill.

Now because I would be likely to upgrade the pickups to BKPs and I would want to put a better Floyd Rose on there I think I would chose to have black pickups and rings and might even change the floyd and machineheads to black as well.

Then it will look a bit more subdued apart from the pearl and abalone

That's what I had in mind. Let the hardware soak in while the abalone flashes the whole guitar.

BKPs I'm not so sure as to what I would put in. Overwound Sinner sprung to mind but I'm only thinking about it. :)
