i really really like this.
Leaving a 400 lbs waitress a tip is still considered cow-tipping and is a felony in some states.

Very good! I liked the inlay! Though about doing it sometimes, but with pearl.

I'm doing one in red but like a SG standard in my shape.  :D

The person the guitar was made for asked for that inlay so it's a one off and not standard on that model.  :D

The inlays are the same as what I've been planning for the guitar that I'll evenually get round to building....... I was also thinking about inlaying a precious stone in the headstock.

Have you been hacking into my computer?  :lol:
Advice worth what you just paid for it.

Love it!  :D

I think the black stain was a very good idea, walnut's a nice looking wood but its actual colour is rather dreary.  Combined with the satin finish and the ebony, it makes a very "unified" overall look, I think.

I also like the silver ring inlays, I've got a guitar with inlays like that.
