guitar inlay stickers image
Q. I've been wanting to get my name across the neck of my guitar like Taylor Swift. But, I have no idea how. Do you have to like order it? Do you have to get the neck done custom? Can you get a sticker? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.
Answer
If your name is Taylor, Washburn, Martin, etc you're lucky....your name will be on the top of the guitar. When you see it on the fretboard of the guitar, it's done with inlay...just like the marker dots. You have 2 options: Special order the guitar, or have a luthier or artist do the inlay for you. If you have a guitar you want it done to, look for local instrument builders. They will be able to do the work...or steer you toward somebody who can. Be prepared to spend some money. Also realize that if you put your name on the guitar, the resale value goes down. Unless your name is the same as somebody famous, you might want to stick to flower and vine inlays.....or leave the guitar alone and buy a strap with your name on it.
