[Brian]

Caltech Fretboard Compound might be worth investigating further.

interesting, i'd be interested in it, they only thing is if your inlay work is not PERFECT it will show every little defect.

It does not shrink, rise, or sink like standard relacement fret dots

I find that line quite humorous, last I checked most standard replacement dots were plastic, abalone, MOP, etc, and I've never seen that shrink rise or sink

might be a little strange. Especially if it was goopy. I could see it being really nice for a tree of life. wonder if you could dye it.

Sounds very much like the new UV cure Bondo. I used the new Bondo on the flamed Tele to fill screwholes and level off the wood filler for the neck pup. Very different texture from original Bondo, kinds gummy, looks like thick snot. Kinda opaque creamy whiteish. I'm sure you could add pearl to color it, Sands OK, even in the hot sun it did'nt cure rock hard like to old stuff, but still sandable.

I was wondering the same thing for that dot-less ebony fretboard thread.
