Yeah...I know...a lot of inlay. I guess I was inspired by something. It was also my first attempt at stealing inlay pics, so I think I did pretty well. You can send that buffing unit directly.

You didn't look close enough! This little guy is repeated over 1000 times in the rosette insert.

Unfortunately, I am at work so I can't take a picture of the actual goat from the guitar. Also, I don't have a good enough camera to capture the goat in all of its glory when I am home, so don't bother asking.
