    just as well...very poor fit! The outlines look ok, neck pockets on all their bodies are too tight and too shallow. The strat bodies are awful, not enough room for the trem to operate properly, misaligned neck to bridge, square edged lower horn, the list is endless. I guess he's not got original drawings. Shame really as the timber is good.

    Hmm.. You need a Dremel. :P

    That logo looks fantastic Pete
    I am going to have a go at doing one and would appreciate some info/advice
    Exactly what paper did you use, I've seen clear and white, I assume clear is best, but is there a particular kind?
    Did you use a Sharpie for the silver?
    I've seen a method where you soak the decal, flip it over then paint the rear before applying it but your method looks much better
    Lovely bass too

    I bought clear laser printer decal paper from [url="http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/steve-birdie-edwards."]http://myworld.ebay....birdie-edwards.[/url] I used a Unipaint marker, but I'm not completely satisfied with the result, the fill got a bit uneven, think a sharpie would do the job better. I also had my 1 year old son running around my legs and climbing on the table when I applied the decals, it was a bit thrilling. :P

  4. Printed two copies of the logo. One to colour and one for apply over.



    Used a silver metallicpencil to fill the logo.



    I've wet sand the head with 2k grit to level out any ruggedness. Applied both decals on the head, the coloured logo first then the other logo.


    Now its time to apply nitro laquer.

  5. Bought a Aguilar DB 112 from him. After my money transfer had been received, it only took 4 days to have it delivered from England to Sweden.

    Fat Bob a very good seller, nice doing business with you. Many thanks again!
