The beginner and intermediate videos are each two and a half hours long, and the advanced video is over two hours.  All are packed with information for anyone interested in making inlays for themselves.  The basic inlaying tape covers tools, materials, design, cutting, routing, gluing and leveling.  A simple butterfly is the project for this tape.

The intermediate tape shows the process of designing and inlaying a more complex vine in a guitar fingerboard, and covers engraving the finished product as well.

The advanced tape is intended for inlayers with some experience under their belts, and deals with inlaying signatures and block lettering, designing lettering both by hand and on a computer, pinstriping the back of a guitar neck, inlaying over the compound curves of an archtop guitar, and finally, three-dimensional inlaying.

There is a little overlap on these tapes, due to the probability that many people will order only the one which reflects their skill level, but they are well worth the list prices of $59.95 for the basic and intermediate tapes, and $49.95 for the advanced tape.
