You'd probably get sued by Al Franken!

He's good enough, smart enough, and has more money!

I think your decal is a great idea. Pays tongue-in-cheek homage to the Fenders we all love while at the same time celebrating the fact that this is your own creation. So much better than those parts-o-casters people try to pass off as "custom, one of a kind, authentic" Fender products.

That is sweet. How did you create it, photo shop, word program?

How you going to print it up, bulky contact or are you able to do your own waterslide?

Hi kozy814: neat job. If you care to tell us, what typeface did you use for "WITH MAD SCIENTIST TREMOLO", please?

And where can I get a Mad Scientist tremolo, by the way? :D

Cheers - C

That design is by far too Awesome!!! Love it! Can't wait to see it on a guitar. Maybe sell a few extras on Ebay so us strato-holics can use it on custom headstocks!

Thanks for all the great feedback! Here is the 70's style..

http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee34 ... sdecal.jpg


BTW, It was created in Adobe Illustrator. I hand drew the Franken logos.

The Mad Scientist face is Futura Med.

For printouts I was gonna make up a sheet of waterslides myself.

When I print these up I'll make a couple extra for anybody who'd like one...
