They're both mother of pearl but I'm suspecting that the one on the ibanez is plastic.
The Jackson is broken internally so a stew mac truss rod rescue kit wouldn't fix it.

I got an ibanez neck off ebay with the head stock snapped off, I thought it would
be a good practice neck for work. So I removed the fretboard using the tutorial on
projectguitar.com and two of my inlays got so hot that they shrivelled up and fell off.
I want to fix the truss rod on my jackson neck but don't want the same thing to
happen, how can I prevent the same thing from happening again?
1979 Fender F-35 Full Restoration
in Acoustic and Hollowbody Guitar Chat
Posted
While browsing ebay last week I found a 1979 Fender F-35 in rough shape, but since I grew up playing my mom's F-75 I
decided to buy it. It just arrived today and it has a lot of things that need to be fixed. Unfortunately my camera deleted
my before pics so here is the listing

The first thing I did was strip it down to the bare bones. Then I got to work on the bridge.
Originally I had just wanted to take off the strips of wood they had glued on, but the previous owner
had also filed down the original bridge so it all had to come off. I also took off the pick guard and
nut. My next job will be filing down a new bridge, patching the holes and redoing the finish. Here's my
first question: What is the best way to take off an acoustic's fret board with minimal tools without
bending the fret board? Pics to follow
