Advice on making side fret marker dots more visible (EVH Wolfgang STD)
Never thought it would get to this point, but I have had an unusually hard time seeing the top fret marker dots on my Wolfgang with baked maple neck. The dots are black, so when combined with an unusually dark-baked neck, I'm having a harder time than I should. I have always liked to play in a darkened room, as well.
Any advice as to how I can modify them, or boost the visibility. I know I'm getting older every day, but c'mon. I don't even wear glasses!

I wouldn't permanently alter the neck in anyway.
Only things I can think of would be tiny pieces of white tape or perhaps very little dabs of white-out or liquid paper over the dots. I believe that stuff can be removed, if necessary.
Or if I'm being a total dick, my answer would be just play more.![]()

I know a guy who has the same problem, he puts bright colored yellow stickers on them.
