Precision Bass Font?

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone know what font fender uses on the part that says "Precision Bass" on a pbass? I am painting my headstock to match my bass and I want to put down Precision Bass into the paint but I cant find the right font. Not interested in the "Fender" font because Im not putting Fender because this is not a full fender, just the font for the Precision Bass part.

You can get plenty of Fender Precision Decals on ebay. If you morally disagree with the idea of a Fender logo on your bass (understandable in the circumstances) you can chop down the decal. Some guys even make them in different colours, which would be good if you had a dark headstock and wanted the logo to really 'pop'.

its not a morality issue, Im actually making my own version because it is my design(my wood choices, hardware choices, etc so its pretty much not a fender at all with the exceptions of a few parts that I preferred fender over other designs) I was gonna do a "fender" takeoff with Capote Precision Bass and I wanted to paint it into the bass rather than a water-slide. kinda old school style like the old gibson guitars. I got the font I want to use for Capote, but i want the precision bass to be the same font as on a fender headstock which i think is some sort of sans-serif, plus my headstock is gonna be black and i want to use a lighter paint for the logo under the clear.
