Rosette Blue Dots Fret Dot Markers Unboxing, Review and Comparison

Here I review the Blue Dot version of the fret dot markers by Rosette Guitar Products. Surprisingly, they areĀ  more difficult to install than the Pearl White version!

The Pearl White ones I installed have deteriorated slightly over the last few weeks. Unfortunately, the video does not capture this well.

In short, I highly recommend the Pearl White ones over the Blue/Gold version.

Apparently the set I reviewed above was a dud (hey, these things happen). Kent Geroge from Rosette Guitar Products was kind enough to send me a replacement sent. This set worked flawlessly like the PearWhite fret markers.

The Blue/Gold dots blend into the side of the fretboard unlike the white dots that jump out at you like the fret markers on old Ramirez guitars. It looks quite sophisticated. The differences between the both are largely aesthetical. It’s nice of Rosette Guitar Products to offer 2 different designs.

Highly recommended and kudos to Kent George for his excellent customer service.
