Its 25 fret, but not inlaid all the way. Does it look right? All I have left is clearcoat, and drilling for the stop and TOM.All the binding is flamed maple and the inlays are maple dowel pieces.

Should I buy a smaller dowel and finish it off or leave it?

I'm talking about the ones on the floor where it looks like a lefty (but with the knobs in the wrong place. Reverse that so it's a righty and it looks better to my eye.

Here's what i mean:

The proportions look more pleasing to my eye when it's that way. The upper horn just doesn't look right to me, otherwise. But that's just me. :D

I'm really bad at acronyms as I have said before. What does DC stand for (or is it the model name)?

That's a pretty wild looking fretboard. Is it purple heart or did you dye it purple'ish?

i think DC means double-cut. well... at least Gibson calls they're double-cuts DCs.

either way, the guitar looks awesome, man. :D

You mean my cow looks like a cat?

Seriously thanx. The guitar looks AMAZING now with the clear and buffing done.

And Lucky (the cat) is the coolest ever. He likes to pose for pictures. He seems to know when the camera is present, and sneaks his way right on in alot.
