I am going to start doing inlay for my guitars and I was hoping some one could tell me what is need. I’ll be using mostly metals shell and plastic. Price isn’t a factor really I just want to know what I need for the most success and some helpful tips would be nice.
And I am also wondering what would I use to cut the metal inlays and how would I level them after there inlayed.

The package looks cool and the finish is done by aplying a black dye and sanding back then aplaying a blue dye. the finishing will cost you around 100$ id say maybe more depends on how you are planing to clear coat it. If you want a GaR sound put some gibson Pickups in (burst buckers would be cool but then ur adding on another 160 can each).
Hope this helps
