Custom decals please...

[Eilif]

I asked this on the basses forum, but got no reply. I'll try here.

Is there anybody here who could -for a reasonable fee- do decals with...

"Fenderbird" in "Fender" script and "Ox Bass" in the medium-large script used to write "Jazz Bass" in the 70's?

I want to put a decal on the headstock, but I'm not to keen on putting "Fender" on a bass with no Fender parts.

I have the parts on the way, and I want to have the Decal ready to go when it all comes together.

E-bay. There are a half a dozen sellers that will do custom water slide decals. Search for "Headstock waterslide decals".

you can buy a package of clear waterslide decal paper for roughly .75 cents each and make your own at home

I want one that says Flounder in Fender script.

Yeah, there's always ebay, but I'd rather put the cash in the pocket of a TB'er.

I considered doing it myself, but I have neither a printer or a good photoshop type program.

I really thought there'd be someone here with some photoshop ability and the desire to make a few bucks. Oh well...

For some reason, I want to say that Fender trademarked their script/font used in their logo...

You should be able to find a graphic designer to mimic it well if you can't find the typeface.

Hit me up and I'll give it a shot pro bono.

You'll just have to send the finished product to someone to print as a waterslide.

+1. Your local craft shop may also carry them and you just need to do the graphics and print them out.

Ditto. It'll just have to wait till I get home from work.

Here's a quick mock-up of the Fenderbird. There are still a couple of tweaks to make, but am I close? I have no Fender at home to compare to...plus the "bird" was tough to create.

Solid upper half of the B?

I found this guy on eBay but completed the transaction outside of eBay. Overall I was pretty happy with the results.

Here is what he made for me:

*Man, I wish I would have hit you up instead. Very nice! This "b" looks better! Great work!
