Face Dot swaps on Showcase necks

I would like to see necks in the showcase without face dots or with the option to swap them. On most showcase necks the frets haven't been installed yet so it would not require much work to swap out the face dots.

Or maybe just less necks with cream plastic dots. If someone is already willing to spend $200-500 on a neck then the extra $10-15 to get abalone or mother of pearl instead of plastic isn't an issue....

thanks,
 
IIRC the fretboard markers are put on as the radius is being applied. Doing so post facto would be labor & time intensive.
 
They could make a little kit with different face dots in it so you could change them to match your purse and shoes! Like I do with the grips on my S&W .357 Magnum.... :cool01:
 
Correct.  Very hard to do on a finished neck.  That's the beauty and frustration of the showcase.  Less options, but less money.  Just take the hit on the wallet and order what you want.  I don't mind paying a little more (which is actually the real price) to get what I want and not settle.  This suggestion is actually doable, just not in the showcase.

Where do you get your grips?
I've got a 41 Magnum, and want me a set of Amboyna Burl grips, but with the same checkering as the original grips.
