God, I hate that inlay so much.

In the meantime:

Coincidently, my favourite Daemoness too.

Wow! I had seen that inlay plenty of times before, but never with that degree of detail! I had no idea there were all these flower stems somehow stuck in there...really impressive.

Normally I just go to the "inlays" album on the Daemoness Facebook page. 2 of my favourites have already been posted.

Note- this is not my guitar, but it is one of my favorite inlays ever. Ron Thorn (Pops too) is a master :)

I really hope this turns into a "I can do better than that" kinda thread, everyone one-upping each other.

I'm a big fan of minimalism, like on Ola Englund's signature model:

Daaamn OP, you chose the SLS inlay as your fav? I haaate that inlay, though I do admit it's nicer looking in person since the color reflections show more.

I've gone from a guy that loved crazy complex inlays to much preferring a single inlay centered on the twelfth fret. I opted for the tomoe for my upcoming custom (below). But, I have to say this RAN Guitars inlay of the gothic pumpkin patch is fucking amazing and I still love it! (further below obviously).

I love the Nolly sakura inlay and Roo's water drop, too. Those are awesome. Not to load this thread too much with Daemoness stuff (but how could you not?!), but I really like these two, too. Hard to say if it's just the inlays or the themes as a whole.

I almost stole this idea for my current Black Water build before deciding on the mountain thing, haha.

edit: OH MAN, THE GUITAR IS ORANGE. IT'S THE SUN. mind=blown.
