The inlay looked good before, but it looks even better with the frets on there.

That is looking very nice! My first real guitar was an old ‘78 Ibanez Artist with the tree of life on the fret board. I now have a Wolf copy, and a Bolt. This guitar you are building is a mix of all three. It’s ideal.

This guitar you are building is a mix of all three. It’s ideal.My first guitar was an '83 Artist. Loved that guitar. This style has gone through a few iterations. It was originally inspired by the Ibanez 2672 and a Musician. While designed as a 70's Bobby guitar I have to say I really like the feel of it and might try a 25 1/2" version. My Wolf weighs over 10 lbs, my "Bella's" are closer to 8-9 lbs. These, thanks to the thin Korina body, are more like 7lbs which is like playing an air guitar
