…and it’s not even close. Especially ebony.

I think my PC1 is the only guitar I´ve ever had without any inlays or fretboard markers, but it is a very sleek look. Sorry for the crappy pic, low light in the music room and an old phone...

yep.
Fretboard is sweet...
unfortunately, Ibanez only offers this bass in matte orange shitburst finish
This color is more to my liking, and the fretboard has a slight blue-black hue, richlite IIRC, which is also my favorite fretboard material

I'm too much of a noob; I prefer having markers on the board

Wow. This thread went off the rails pretty quick. On got two guitars before it turned to three basses and a machine.

The little dots on the top of the neck are usually good enough for me. My classical guitar doesn’t have any so I added tape on the top of the neck lol.
So since we’re already derailed, can I see some fretless guitars please?

I had a CMG Ashlee that had no fret markers and I only had a few problems in the higher register now and then. The new scalloped Warmoth I got a month ago has no markers on an ebony board and I rarely miss a note I'm intending to hit, so that one works out better than the Ashlee I had.

Both of my Jarretts are blank too.

I’m a simple guy: I don’t see fret markers on a guitar - I don’t buy it.

It's easier to have your stage name inlaid in mother of pearl on a guitar with a blank fretboard. You are pretty much a guitar kimg if you do that.

Side markers are for playing, and board inlays are for decoration.
Most of my boards are blank. I have a few with cool inlays and one with regular dots.
