that will look great, still waiting for my kit, hold back due to warped neck, has given me more time to plan though....

[Dedman]

got some goof off today, seems to have taken a lot of the glue off but I'll still do a very thin (PRS style) burst around the edge , hope to get back to it tomorrow

head stock with 1 coat of TO . The decal was done with the grease proof paper and iron method.

Was going to prime the sides and back of the body today but its blowing a gale

slow and steady mate, decal looks good, did you find the process difficult?

[Dedman]

the first time I did Stan. Then I found it worked better if you tape the greaseproof to an a4 paper, on my printer (lazer) it didn't like feeding the greaseproof by itself. Also, the smoother the timber is , of course the better the adhesion.

great tips thanks, good to see different ways of doing headstock decals

I can't say the name on your headstock without saying

"Master Caster runs Bartertown"

Looking good Deddy.

I successfully did TO on the Fret Board of my J Bass, just put down less coats than for a whole body. Probably 6 - 8 from memory and here are a couple of shots of the end result. Looks and feels just like a Maple Fender would and really happy with the outcome.

I lurv that J bass, I think it's the red that does it.
