Re: Making Real Wood Buttons for Gotoh Tuners...
Last May I had the same idea, but I wanted them to resemble Handel tuner buttons. I carved one out of maple and wood burned the "inlay" into it. I haven't pursued the idea further. I think if you take your wood buttons and laser etch the Handel design (or any design) into them, they'd be a very popular item.
In dark colored buttons, after they are etched, you could fill the etched recess with gold (paint?) and they would look really cool.
It ain't gotta be perfect, as long as it's perfect enough!
