The Chinese Dragon is shown on  a full 24 fret fingerboard in the picture above. The art is scaled to fit the string number and scale length.  
 
The inlay itself is done is abalone, mother of pearl, golden mother of pearl, black Tahitian mother of pearl, sterling silver and bloodwood.

I'm completeley gasping along.
(watch out: don't drool on the keyboard of your computer)
However: I prefer the GOthic thing.
But of course I don't have to deal with your Senior Management. 1 is enough for me!!!

Well - that's it - I'm not dreaming anymore!  I've ordered it!! Specification:-
Mark King Deluxe (custom shape)
Silver Side Position Markers
Deluxe Purpleheart Laminates
Recessed Silver Logo w/shell
Chinese Dragon
 
I can't wait!
 
FYI Paul - I'm buying through a good friend of yours I believe, a certain Mr. Edwin van Huik at the Bass Connection in the Netherlands  :-)
 
To each and every one of you who has helped with my inane witterings, the endless questions, giving me information, advice and the pure friendliness to get me to this point - I thank you all!
