Fret Boards

Beautiful inlay on an instruments fretboard is a time honored tradition. This can take a great instrument and convert it to a masterpiece. Here are a few I have done for customers.

This inlay is simple (compared to most of my stuff), BUT this fretboard was done for "Lemmy" from Motorhead. It was a prototype for a new Signiture guitar being made by Minarik Guitars. How cool is that.
I know, I know, this is guitar body inlay, but what can I tell you. This section is sort of becoming a catch all. I like this shadowy wolf's head a lot and wanted to show it off.
