AndyTravis Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) Having a chat with a fellow BC'er about Headstock Decals... It's a bit of a sore subject as *ENDER are generally pissed off with repro's of their gear... either which way, i've found...(WEBSITE ASKS TOO KEEP OFF FORUMS, JUST SPOTTED) And it seems like a good deal. Anybody else had a Nash/Bravewood needing a decal? We were mainly discussing early 70's precision bass decals. Any ideas? Places you've used? Edit - Suppose PM is best rather than posting? I Know *ENDER are getting really heavy with this stuff. Thanks Trav Edited April 12, 2010 by AndyTravis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankdelvar Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) FWIW, I inkjet logos onto Letraset Safmat. Peel off, stick on. Peel off if you fancy a change. Not [i]quite[/i] as 'invisible' as a decal, but fine from about 2 feet away. Edited April 12, 2010 by skankdelvar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 It's really easy to make your own, buy a sheet of transparent waterslide paper off eBay, get the decals off the net and knock up a sheet in Publisher. They work with any inkjet printer, i did some a while ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it costs is paper, ink and a coat or two of lacquer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raggy Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Just got some for my fretless P project from Simon at www.decartdecals.com. I did the artwork myself, but he will do that if you need. Had two come through (water slide type) and it looks the biz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Just PM'ed you with a Swedish website which does the whole range of F*nder waterslide decals. Cheap and easy to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancient Mariner Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I quite like the idea of doing one that superficially looks like 'ender: 'Pecker' or similar. If I want a guitar with Fender on the headstock I'd prefer to buy one they made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
