Spoof/funny Fender decal for partscaster?

Does anyone have a good source for a decal for a partscaster? Hopefully a source that someone has hands on experience with a quality decal and image.

Something like "Faked partocaster" or something similar. I don't want the vulgar version (I have kids...lol). I can just google it, but I have had varying quality of decals over the years from different sources. I'm looking for a quality example and am willing to pay a few bucks more for that.

I'm also not looking to put a Fender logo on this, so let's not have this devolve into a 20 page thread of pontification on the ethics of fake decals...I'm not looking to do that.

You can buy the decal paper and print your own.

I had one made by a guy on Ebay. I forget who, sorry, but he did custom work with metallic ink and such. I went with "Friendo Telecopy."

Those are great. Thanks!

I might pick one up for the partscaster I'm working on.

Call it Flanders with Fender fonts.

Yes, I might use one of those "Custom Less Real" water slides on an ES-150 DC copy I have...fantastic guitar, but lacking in the headstock logo area.

I found a seller on eBay that will print whatever you like with metallic ink. I am happy with the outcome.

Our own slinger72, makes them. I had him make me up a couple, and couldn't be happier. Great guy, great product, and great service.

Rothko and Frost make high quality custom headstock decals.

I'm a big fan of Rothko & Frost - they do it right!

One or two guys post regularly in the Parts and Accessories Emporium. They might be one of the ones mentioned above.

See, I've never considered doing a partscaster for the cost savings. I do mine so that I can have all of the specifications that I prefer on my guitars. In fact, a couple of my parts casters cost more than brand new fender American standards. They also play and sound a helluva lot better!

I think building a parts caster to try and save money is a fools errand! YMMV

ThEn call it a " Fancier SPENDYCOSTER"

Or in acknowledgement of its pieced-together status
Franken STEINOCASTER
