each builder has a few opinions or methods on how they do what they do. what special charecteristics do you put into your build, to give it "personalty" "uniqueness", and all the little things than only a builder can add. like, when cutting the body shape, do you just use a template and router to get to the final shape, or maybe you trace using a template, then cut and sand to the final shape by hand. scarf or no scarf? angle of head? neck angle or not? your own methods? edge rounding - router, or by hand?, things you do more than other builders, things you try to avoid doing, but that others may like to do? anything that you., and only you can add to the musical instrument?

No inlays and no side dots. I figure that if someone is paying for one of my instruments then they already know how to play. Also, it allows the wood to speak for itself.

My personal touch is everything my customer point out as 'Is this normal????'
Some call them mistakes....
Edit : I saw that in a sig somewhere : making mistakes looks like special feature.
