What, no love for 2,000-piece mammoth ivory dragons? ;)

Is there even such a beast?

Ah, I didn't realise that's what you meant. How many hours does it take to put that jigsaw together I wonder? There was one of those in PMT Birmingham for ages.... £25,000 if I remember correctly.

I always wanted to do a partial bids inlay on one of my guitars
They would only go up half the neck and the rest would just be scattered feathers and finally a plump cat sat washing a paw as the last inlay.

OK - a bit twisted but it appealed to me
Love this idea!

I like both. Moons are a great take on standard dots, but PRS = birds to me. So probably have to plump for birds, but preferably the old or artist style rater than outline or dirt birds.

Ditry birds are a different conversation entirely

I think the moons are cool and a great idea, but unless you're right in front of the guitar, you can't see the moons, they just look like dots.

Ah, but that's the subtlety of it!  :)

After some recent sales, I no longer have any PRS guitars with birds.  So I guess I'm a moons man again.  I would still like something with the old-style birds though....

I guess that's true, but it's like an inside joke that only you know about!

Moons, I think the birds look tacky and awful!
