Members blind radish Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Original post anybody know how to remove one decal and replace with another? (no, not to dupe ebayers ... I got a squier neck, but want a reg fender logo) UPDATE OK, after all is said and done ... I ended up buying a nice 93 MIM fender strat neck W/ tuners (after the squier did not fit properly) and installed on the CRASH body ... guess what .... :love: She's a keeper || Will not sell ... so don't ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Janx Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Well, you're going to need a Fender logo sticker to put on, so these directions should work: Method 1:goto pawn shop.Buy a guitar with a Fender logo on itremove the necks on both guitarsattach the Fender logo neck to your original guitarrestring, tune, and play Method 2:goto pawn shop.Buy a guitar with a Fender logo on itthrow away the other guitar, you've got what you wanted a Fender logo guitar Method 3:Don't worry about who's logo is on your guitar. The only thing that matters is: do you like how it looks, do you like how it sounds, can you you play it Anybody who gives you crap for not having the "preferred brand" is simply putting you down to raise themselves up.

Members ECFan Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 You'd need to sand the headstock to bare wood, apply the new decal, and refinish. It's a lot easier to just buy a Fender neck on eBay. There are dozens out there. Or get a Warmoth or USACG neck and apply your decal of choice. Or you could just play the Squire. Nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ColourOfFire Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 it doesn't matter what logo is on your guitar, a fender's a fender, a squier is a squier, no matter what logo is on it, just play better and save up money so you can afford a real fender. PPL who put a fender logo on a squier are really pathetic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chump5150 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 This reminds me of a funny car thing. A few years ago I stopped by the Pep Boys on Hollywood Blvd in LA to get windshield wipers. On my way into the store I pass by a Toyota Corona beater from the 70's. It was lowered with fat tires and had a BMW roundel pasted on the hood, and the trademark BMW "kidney grill" attached to the front end. The Corona body shape and size was somewhat similar to the BMW 3 Series from that era, but, well... That made my day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ColourOfFire Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Then just remove the logo, don't replace it. If you DO want to replace it, design something yourself;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chump5150 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 You can mess with people too, and make it so it looks like "Fender" from a medium distance but turns into something completely different once you're close enough. Kind of like the logos on the Japanese lawsuit guitars, but it could be something really offensive or just with personal significance. Or something that will make girls want to figure out what goes on in your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jrew Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 I totally agree with sex machine, he didnt ask for whether you thought it was right or wrong. He asked if you knew how to remove and replace a logo so if you dont post. Leave him alone, let him do wut he wants. Anyway, sand or scrapes it off, then buy a logo from ebay and follow the procedure to install it. hope it turns out good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BowerR64 Posted December 25, 2005 Members Share Posted December 25, 2005 You need a good printer and the waterslide paper. Once you print the logo you need to clear over it because the ink will come off when you put the logo in the water. This person will never go threw with everything that it takes to do it. Its not just somthing that you throw together one weekend. IMO its just as cool to make your own then to use a logo like fender. It can get just as much if not more attention. But its your guitar, do what you want with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sex Machine Posted December 27, 2005 Members Share Posted December 27, 2005 well first off it was xmas eve and i was a little off in that post if you catch me (got a vaporizor from my bro !!! ) anyhow, im not using that as an excuse, thats just my reasoning for the post being so weird either way, my opinion still stands. he asked for the proper way to remove a decal, not for a lesson in ethics or whatever you people thought you were doing i saw those posts coming from a mile away as soon as i read the first post. just want to clarify that you people here are ridiculous sometimes, and that you should let other peoples views on {censored} stand (like name on the headstock, if he cares, who gives a {censored}? not me) happy new year bitches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members L6Sguy Posted December 27, 2005 Members Share Posted December 27, 2005 sexmachine, while i understand how a vaporizer that should induce feelings of calm, good cheer & good karma might make you come off like a complete cock, well no........... i dont understand that, and you dont understand why we dont neccessarily want to help Blind Radish create a counterfeit neck. perhaps you should just go back to monitoring what everybody is doing, like any good stoner should , and we can go back to talking guitars.

Members santos Posted December 27, 2005 Members Share Posted December 27, 2005 Originally posted by Sex Machine ...he asked for the proper way to remove a decal, not for a lesson in ethics or whatever you people thought you were doing... Yes, I understand...sort of...where you're coming from. Sometimes posters ask simple questions and get directed waaay off base - they ask for a recommendation on a good practice amp and get suggestions of boutique tube amps, or ask for a cheap distortion pedal, and guys recommend $250 handmade stuff...etc. Yes, that's frustrating, but I'm sure you can see where people on this forum would not want to help someone possibly scam others. If the original poster had asked about faking Fender serial numbers, would that be ok too, because, you know, those Squire serial numbers look tacky...

Members joesl8 Posted December 27, 2005 Members Share Posted December 27, 2005 Is it a maple or rosewood neck? Sand it down, buy one of those stickers off of eBay, apply it. Coat the neck with some varnish, basic cabinetry stuff there. But hey, before you do that, write some date on the butt of the neck! Then shallac it, now your good to go. Screw what anybody says, it's your guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
