Scallpoing a Model 6

[desmauler]

I was looking through the gallery, and I saw a scalloped neck WITH the arrows, its possible so how can it be done?

Custom order a guitar with a scalloped neck and have arrow inlays put in. Simple as that really.

It is not guaranteed that the markers will stay. They vary greatly in thickness. When a guitar neck is marked for scalloping I am sure they make sure the fret markers are thick enough. You just don't know on a stock one until you start grinding the wood out. Dots are usually ok.

I've seen lots of dots come out on scalloping jobs. The trick is that you have to have the stuff on hand to put new dots in.
