F#**er Headstock Logo (warning swear word inside)

Sign in to disble this ad
So I recently did a headstock mod on an SX and was thinking it would be funny to make a spoof Fender logo. I enjoy subtle humor and was wondering if you think this would sell if I mass produced it?

Ya, can't do that, even when you warn us. So, say things like "letters that rhyme with the words "Jeff, You, Sea, Kay." Capiche? Pretty sure that's OK.

I know a guy that works at the Paul Reed Smith factory who took a strat and made it a F(*&^% Hannocaster.

Looking for a pic now.......here is a thread on it.

Edit: He is the top coat manager at Paul Reed Smith.

You could host it online and post a link. Maybe.

Dude, the poll was fine, just I guess it was on one of the other two I deleted. I didn't think you really intended to triple post the thread, just figured the app hung or something.
Just repost whatever poll you want.

Briefly had an MIM fretless J with a modfied decal - flipped me out when I first realized it, as it was such a good-quality match with the original graphic. This was about 4 years ago.

This guys seems to have some solid work. My idea along with others is on pg 3. So hard to create a unique idea now-a-days.

Ha ha, imagine someone goes to a gig with a "F%$#er" logo. It would be quite a shock if people realized. It could be more subtle on the decal of a "Squier by F%$#er" (with F%$#er in small font).

I have a Squier P bass with the F***** logo on it, made by a guy here on TB. I've played a few gigs with it, and no one, not one person, has said anything to me about it. My inner attention whore cried.

Damn. The miniscule font of the "Fender" logo in a Squier may indeed make the joke too subtle.

Well, at least you know that people have been listening a dancing to a band whose bassist has the "F" work on his headstock. And they haven't even noticed.

Considering the current country of origin for the bulk of Fender products these days I'm inclined to believe we may one day see this...
