Missing the mark

Post by Joe Cook »

Anyone have a fix for missing white inlays for a Rickenbacher bakelite neck? I'm missing three. It doesn't throw me off as much as I think it looks better with 'em!

I took my Bakelite to Burdines Cosmetics Dept ... They matched the color of the dots with nail polish ... 1 drop fills the well ... when it hardens it makes a nice fret dot :mrgreen:

Folks have used "White out" with success ...

Toothpaste too ...

Thanks Rick! I'll give the nail polish a try.
