Kudoz on the experimentation Nigel. Sometimes you never know what you can do till you try. I've had many failed ones too and as such have shied away from any near future experimentation.

I too have never inlayed a logo and again for me it's in the classical guitar tradition. The label is good enough and I always sign it :) Indeed mother nature has provided us with plenty of natural beauty in the wood. I suppose shell is also nature but I digress. It's not everyone's cuppa tea.

What I haven’t considered l, until now, is a 12 fret wave (or some other simple marker) made from the same stock as the binding.

Bare fingerboards are fine. The customer even asked me to leave the high frets out on this one.... :o

I don't think you can go wrong either way. Nice looking guitar [:Y:] . That being said I'd probably leave it plain.
