Re: Coming soon: THE JAGUAR X!!!
Here's what I done did:

Let me know if you like it, or if there's something specific you want me to change, and then what color you'd like the text to be. If you're keeping this sunburst I was thinking Yellow? But it's your gee-tar, so just let me know.

Dude, that's gorgeous. The headstock is painted black now, so gold would probably be the best choice. Now who on here can make waterslide decals?noisepunk wrote:Here's what I done did:

Re: Coming soon: THE JAGUAR X!!!
There are several people on ebay who advertise that they can make custom decals with silver and gold ink. If you can't find an OSGer.
I finally finish building a guitar, go to play it, and then remember, "oh yeah, that's right. I suck at playing... Why did I build another guitar again?"

Clear the logo by Paul real quick like, I want to make sure he approves because it isn't one of his (I got impatient waiting for him to send me the file for his, and now I have them and none of them fit the headstock).
Isn't it just special paper and a gold or silver ink pen for those colors? It might not be as easy as it sounds. I should learn how to make water-slide decals...mongoose69 wrote:Now who on here can make waterslide decals?

>_< I'm an idiot, I saved it in the wrong file format and now I have to recreate it; it's not a big deal other than now it'll be a little different.

The file isn't saving, sorry. Maybe someone else can recreate it from my JPG file.

Re: Coming soon: THE JAGUAR X!!!
OK, so some updates- one MAJOR one minor.
First the minor- we've opted to go with a hand-drawn logo and model name. I like the personal touch.
And now for the MAJOR- After extensive testing, Paul has found the Teisco pickups to be unacceptably microphonic. This can actually be very cool in and of itself; but since this is meant to be a stage guitar, we've done a major rethink and direction change.
So be looking for a post from Paul himself soon, likely with pictures- completion is IMMINENT! And expect a TEISCO-UAR project thread to pop up eventually...
