Whichever way you go, it is bound to be spectacular. Have you considered any other type of full fingerboard inlay besides the vine? I know there are some other amazing ones on his website. Don't get me wrong, I love the vine inlay...just throwing ideas out there.
When I saw how the inlay come out on pictures, I figured I probably wanted another one...

The top example that you referenced is Jim's partial vine inlay. It is nice but I prefer the full vine.

And the second one is actually one of my favourites from Jim's recent batch -- very good eye, Jon...

However, as much as Larry Robinson's work is truly outstanding, I usually prefer my "collectible" to come from one artist rather than a collaboration.
