100000 costs this guitar: http://www.martinguitar.com/guitars/choosing/pImages/detail.php?m=D-100%20Deluxe

With laser-made inlays.

But Larry Robinson's handwork I think costs match more. ;-)

nice :) nice nice nice :) Im a little worried the inlays will drop out when Im playing....I dont mind if they are fender dots... but these inlays are too nice to lose!

Not that i've ever seen guitars with the inlays missing

Don't worry. Abalone pieces are glued inside. If you want I can install frets 2.8 mm - it's higher than standart gibson or fender frets. What fret size do you you prefer? In custom order is not noticed fret size.

hmm good question.. what fret size...hadnt really thought about it, but Im used to playing on my '64 fender jaguar (not sure what they used...). what are the fret size for PRS, Gibsons and Fenders? I can make a decision on that... thanks

PRS uses "medium jumbo", as do most modern Gibson and Fender guitars. OLD fenders (like your 64 jaguar) used a thinner "vintage" fretwire.

hi michael.

I think i will go with the medium jumbo then... i quite like the modern frets, slightly easier to bend the strings

flames are a lot more noticeable now :)
is there a difference between "violin amber" and "amber"?? or is it just the way prs named it?

i thought you wanted a burst as a finish, or am i mistaken?

perhaps a violinburst is a bit darker? (just a wild guess)

Hi Sushkov, yes the flames are looking nicer. please update me with pictures of every step :)

Hi Alevtina, i agree :) these guys are good.

Hi Orpheo, yes i think the final colour will be Violin Amber Burst....presumably this is a base colour so there are couple more steps before the final colour. Im leaving Sushkov with the small details about colour as he knows best, and he knows what i want.
