I just blew your fretboard picture up on my photo software and measured accurately, and I find the dots to be dead center... Warmouth did a great job with centering the dots. Your nut was also cut perfectly for playability and comfort. If the dots ran perfectly in between the 2 middle strings, then in my opinion, it would be off. The bass strings NEED MORE ROOM than the treble strings. Your neck, to me, seems absolutely perfect... And I'm an artist. Visuals in this case don't mean squat. I do say this respectively.. Love it and enjoy it..
