this is an aria pro II

I have a customer wanting some inlays along these lines, I have been searching the web trying to find them pre-cut somewhere and have not had any sort of luck thus far, does anyone know where I might start looking or who I could talk to about having the pre-cut?

I have decent experience doing basic inlays on a fret board, but I have not cut my own up to this point, I dont have a timeline where I feel comfortable tackling a new skill like that.

I don't see any of those listed, but if you called him and asked him for some Alembic Ovals, I'm sure he can have them made for you.

Jerry's actual guitar had banjo style inlays on it, not sure which one though.
