simolean14 — SImo - The Holy Fret

Description The frets are blessed with a small cross, only visible from a certain angle. Who would think an instrument of possibly destructive or productive music could be holy when looked at in a new light? What conundrum is this that a guitar is holy in such a small way? Is this a pious form or an simple coincidence?

my warwick hasn't a cross and my fretless bass (it's a fenix - a fender copy but well done) hasn't either any dot between the frets... or where the frets should be (if i talk about my"fretless" one...

question #1: where is the cross?

question #2: what on earth is that guitar laying on?

1. The cross is shown on the fret markings....look at the little pearl balls that run up the fret board.

The guitar is laying on its case....the case is very fuzy!!
