Hey, what is your preferred source for Fender replacement decals?
I have an genuine Fender Jazzmaster with no current logo.
Ordered one from eBay 1st week of January. Arrived yesterday. 7 weeks.
First thing I noticed was the incorrect spelling.
"with syncronized floathing tremelo"
Jesus wept....
Any place you would recommend for accuracy and quicker delivery?
Cheers

Your tremolo doesn’t floath? A good tech should be able to sort that out.
I loath the floath...

Fender spelled synchronized wrong originally, without the h, so the incorrect spelling is in fact ‘correct’.
Was fixed in about ‘66 or ‘67, I think. Reissues also have the correct spelling.
I have a couple of Jazzmaster decals on the way from Crox guitars. Purportedly great quality. I’m probably not going to need them anymore though. Happy to pass on for a slight discount on what I paid. Not sure when they’ll arrived, but I ordered a few weeks ago so shouldn’t be much longer. They’re ‘65 style, so not the spaghetti logo but the thicker kind, which I think looks better anyway — certainly on the bigger JM headstock.

Have you got a Jazzmaster build underway? If so, I'd love to hear about it

Nope — I was planning a matching headstock on my JM, which would require a new decal, but have decided to leave well alone. Hence no longer needing the decal.
Coattailing the thread....If anyone needs a nice Telecaster Custom waterslide, hit me up!

I think it was the 'floathing' and the 'tremelo' thats the deal breaker...
Actually, that was my appalling spelling!

You can buy waterslide paper and make your own on an inkjet printer, just spray clear coat over it and let it dry before wetting so it doesn't run...
Yes, but it won't have metallic ink like a Fender decal.
