Yes...This is the very first time I have ever seen this. This will show/teach you everything..and if you want to stand out your guitar appearance, (inlay on your guitar head, neck, or body)rent this DVD. You will be amazed to know that youcan get the tools from a dollar store. M. Wynn Ottawa. Canada

This video was not very good. The production quality and sound were pretty good but the content was lacking. The guy doing the video was not a very good inlay artist. At the end of the video the inlay looked amateurish and even had noticeable gaps etc. Most of the video is him sawing out the pieces which he does pretty good, but when you get to the part where you actually inlay the pieces he just routes out a big space, glues the inlay into the middle and then back fills everything with black epoxy. The Larry Robinson dvd set on inlay is much much better.
