Does anyone know what the inlays are made of? I ask this because I just bought a 2009 Deluxe and it has abalone dots which I really like, however the pics I see of the new one look different.

I'm pretty sure that for the 2010 Amercian Deluxes they have gone back to standard pearloid on the rosewood fingerboard necks and what look to me from photos as "black pearloid" on the maple board models. I've only seen 2 2010 Amercian Deluxes (both Teles) and they had the rosewood boards with regular pearloid dots.

I too always liked the abalone dots in the AD guitars but I don't think I would employ the custom shop to build a guitar just for abalone dots. I'd prolly just find a used AD if they were that important.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
