Show me some guitars with NO INLAY on the neck (not even dots)

I used to have this Carvin...



... and I had a Jackson PC-1 with a flame maple fingerboard... you can see it behind my Koa Charvel.



I love fingerboards with no inlays... particularly if they are rosewood, pau-ferro, or have some really cool colored streaks running through it.

This Redwood Sadowsky from above makes my loins ache.

Some great looking guitars, guys!

I'm having an acoustic built with no fingerboard inlay, will have side dots though. Pics soon....very soon, I'm told......

[Juanito Burrito]

Warmoth LP. Wenge neck, Jet Black Ebony board with no dots.

Here's a stock photo of my Agile Harm I, semi-hollowbody with P-90s, ebony fretboard, grover tuners, and no dots on board (just side markers). Very nice guitar for the money (or any money).

I have these two....

[dimperdoo]

This constitutes "close" - and is the guitar I found I could play w/o inlays...



Here's my fretless warmoth - yeah, I just had to outdo everyone didn't I?



Sorry if the pics aren't the best

Here is my Carvin Bolt

As in Eye sore? OMFG that thing is fugly! What the hell is Gibson thinking? No wonder their guitars are so over-priced! We have to subsidize these heinous things!

I love the look of a no inlay fretboard. When I got my parker years ago I was kinda worried about no fretmarkers, but I don't really miss them at all. It took FAR less time to get used to than I thought. Just so long as it has side dots, I'm cool. I don't need markers on the fretboard itself.

Strangely enough I like a blank fretboard on ebony, very light colored maple (such as birdseye), or highly streaked Rosewood or other exotics. Don't like regular old rosewood boards w/o inlays. Ditto w/ amber/vintage/yellowed maple necks.

Lowden's don't have any fretboard markers.

Woody Mann was playing his during a clinic, which made it really hard to see exactly what he was doing without that visual reference.

McInturff at a practice session:



Melancon:



My old Ibanez (practically no inlay - 2 abalone microdots offset at the 12th):



Hanewinckel:



Eshenbaugh:



Roscoe (long sold):



I also have a '68 Ramirez classical, but that's kind of a given no-inlay situation.

Both of these guitars were custom ordered without inlays. I did play a couple of inlay-less guitars first to ensure I would be able to play a naked fingerboard and was surprised at how comfortable it was. If I need to count frets, the side markers work fine for me.

First guitar was built by Neal Moser and the second one by GMW Guitar Works.
