why is there an inlay on the 21st fret on my guitar?

[shakeshakeshake]

I have a godin artisan TC and there are no inlays on the fretboard except one on the 21st fret. I cant figure out why. Anyone know?

 

[jazzandmetal?]

So you will know where the 21st fret is.

 

[Jan Folkson]

LMAO!

 

[MeMota]

Because it's flamboyant.

 

[Scott Auld]

Yes, that is odd.

But also .. unique.

 

[jazzandmetal?]

Maybe the guy who programmed the machine was dyslexic.

Specs read: inlay at fret 12 like most guitars and he saw 21. They made a thousand and said F it, we will be unique.

smartass

 

[shakeshakeshake]

How does the guitar play and sound?

 

[RRfireblade]

So you wont dirty it up there ?

 

[shakeshakeshake]

sounds good, not like a telecaster at all however, very rich sounding, no twang

plays kinda like ****... just needs a setup really bad but it doesnt really interest me enough to get one...inotation is horrible and the high E is basically off the fretboard

Two inlays made the guitar too bright and moving the one down to the 12th fret made it entirely too neck heavy. They're still experimenting with inlay materials, and there's also a short block (inlay) model. Sweet!

It's a warning sign to let you know that you're running out of frets really soon.

 

[treeofpain]

Actually, the inlay is not on the 21st fret - it is between the frets...

If you want to get all technical about it...
