I have my initials inlaid in diamonds on the headstock.

about 5 & 1/2 carat weight of nice gems

This is a '59 sunburst strat I picked up for 25K last year.....after inlaying the 7 grand worth of diamonds, they told me I ruined the collectors value!

Its worth hardly anything now.

So I sold it last week for 1500 bucks.

So never inlay any precious gems into the wood on your guitar. Boy did I learn the hard way!

just kidding

seriously

I do have my intials engraved on the truss rod covers of my Gibsons.
Subtle, understated and nice.
