Custom (Fender style) Headstock Decals - Where please?

[xilddx]

I need to get a headstock decal, Fender type logo with custom wording, I've seen chaps on here with them, so where can I order one from?

Thank you!

There is this amazing thing called the internet. You can do what is called a "search" and it helps find what you;re looking for. I'm pretty computer savvy and have already figured out how to do it, so here you go -- just this once though. : ) (link removed)

Or if you want 'Fender like' as opposed to 'Fake Fender' you could try [url="http://shop.rothkoandfrost.co.uk/custom-headstock-waterslide-decal-p/sf118.htm"]here[/url].

(see, I read the OP before resorting to sarcasm)

Well thank you But they are not custom decals, I need my own text in a Fender style and I couldn't find anything.

Cheers.

When applying the decal, be careful as the Rothko ones are very thin, so they can tear easily. When theyre on the headstock, they may look a bit wrinkly, but thst disappears as the water evaporates.

To seal the decal in place, apply very light mist coats over it once its dried out. If you apply too much lacquer / finish, the decal will wrinkle up again.

be careful, and take your time, and you'll end up with a fantastic lookjng headstock mate.

That's brilliant advice mate, thank you!

Rothko are great to deal with and decals are of excellent quality Nige.

Good advice from Kev, they are thin, which is one of the reasons they look so convincing when the job is complete.

[Raggy]

Another chance to post mine from Rothko (again)

But do take your time as mentioned.

Remember, if you are painting the head-stock, make sure you put the transfer on [u]after[/u] [size=4]the paintwork.[/size]

[size=4]Just don't want you messing it up.[/size]
