Hi! Loooooong time since I posted. I'm hunting for the Fender logo from the HM Strat with the Talon neck. This is the best one I could find;

I plan on making a stencil of it for a case. Any help is appreciated!

The logo is a registered trademark and copying it is against the law. Fender frowns on such activities and has been known to prosecute those that do it.

Copying it for commercial purposes is against the law, no one's proposing starting a commercial Fender clone empire here and I doubt FMIC would bring down the weight of their legal department on one person cloning an old unused logo for a guitar case.

Found thishttp://amoinsb.com/#/strato/ , but nothing for Hm logo.

"Strat logo is similar to "Logash" Image

Maybe I'm paranoid , but wouldn't it be like stencelling "Steal Me" on your case?

No paranoia at all. Common sense. I understand why some makers would want their 'brand' on the case. My LP's case reads 'Custom Art Historic' around the circumference of a circle in the center of which is the word 'Gibson'. The silhouette of the case itself, by this time, is a giveaway. Fender's always read Fender, and the vintage tweed cases certainly do, without writing. I have Fender case, done by SKB for the Strat Plus, which reads "Plus Series". PRS never had its brand on the cases. Smart. When my guitars go out, I use a generic case without a trumpet blaring. :idea:

Never considered the theft idea. If I can't get it, no worries.
