 | NGD just for a while Well I saw a good deal on this Carvin and couldn't pass it up. Koa with a walnut neck, gold hardware, floyd, spertzels, ebony without markers, and tung oiled neck. I probably won't end up keeping it because my eyes are messed up and I have trouble seeing the side markers good enough when the light isn't good.. But I wanted to try one for a while to see if I would want to order one.... So far it feels great..     |

| Yeah, unfortunately I've had five eye operations and can't see the side dots too well. If the side dots really stood out then it wouldn't be an issue, but I do get to mess with it for a while and see what I really like, I didn't think I'd like the tung oiled neck but it has a very good feel....SCHWING |

| I pretty much only use them when I transition from Chords at the bass end of the neck to leads at the treble end of the neck, it's hard to go from a G chord to the start of a lead on the fourth string 15th fret without being able to see at least side dots.... |

| Perhaps you could use those attachable LED side markers, from fretfx or fretoptix. .... FretFX ... . Attachable Illuminated LED Fret Markers . . (these are about 70 bucks) FretOptiX - Fiber Optic Fretboard Position Marker Lighting Accessories (These are 20. I have a set, the fretfx are probably better) |
