Small digression on headstock and logo in gold: making
consider I, a logo for the GP, offered to make a test on the aforementioned garbage guitar on which I also inlays and have practiced the Bundi.
so-called Golden Decals can not create at home, unfortunately without any further because no printer prints the color gold. Here is the tutorial, after I have worked for: http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/logo.htm
Here's the process:
Such was the headstock from before, which I have for aesthetic reasons, the extent of existing allowed, adjusted:
then designed the first of the new decal and printed with laser printer (with 900dpi) on overhead projector film mirrored. Unfortunately, there is no mwn water slide film, which can be printed on the adhesive side, which would have gone unseen in the paint. To many, the film is certainly a little too thick, you'd have the whole thing complicated and slow grind leveling with 20 coats of paint, plan to get it all. But the old Fender decals are stuck on even the painted headstock and visible about it.

In Project Guitar tutorial is used as a sealer Mod Podge. A so-called glue napkin for me so far unknown tasteless handicrafts common. In this country, to not get anywhere, so let me have a craft store for more advice and after I have harvested a lot of eye rolling for my annoying questions, then bought
called decoupage varnish. Makes probably the same as Mod Podge.
Then I, just like in the tutorial and on the can of spray adhesive described, the applied adhesive and allow to dry slightly down before the decal druffkam
pressed then meticulously with a toothpick and air from below.
then only removed with cleaning fluid spray all of the top plate and allow to dry. This is then followed
the paint. Since I already had some dealings with cans and even though everything had to quickly go fast and the groundwork was not carried out meticulously, the paint has failed so bad.
Ching follows: Dose in hot water with some 35 °, head plate with a hair dryer to warm up similar temperature warm up a bit. Sufficient temperature is quite important when painting, was mentioned only once. Is often forgotten. The viscosity and the drying run much better then.
draufgenebelt Then a thin layer of 30-40cm away. Then, with the hair dryer upside down on it held so the varnish on it attracts the same and stuck dust.
The procedure three times done and then applied a thicker layer. The then angefönt and allow to dry.
And this is the thing now from:
with subsequent grinding and buffing the thing would of course become more chic, but I lacked the time, resources, and then I was not worth the trouble.
In reality is also much better than in the photos. By the way, I'm not surprised
bad, how good the guitar sounded after the set was even reasonable. Despite the cheap PUs and the transparent sliding caliper.
