I need some advice on this, please.
What I really want is to have my new logo printed on my headstock in metallic gold or brass. I do not want to do an inlay.
My first thought was to have a screen made so that I can screenprint my logo on myself (I have a background in screenprinting). But having a one-off, custom screen made is expensive, and then you have to deal with inks, block-out, clean up chemicals, ect.
My next thought was to have a sheet of gold foil, run-on transfers made. But at anywhere from $100 and up per sheet, that's not really an option either.
I don't like waterslip decals, since they tend to be pretty thick and are almost never opaque, which it would need to be since it will be over ebony.
Does anyone have any ideas on another way do this?
Any advice is welcome.
Thank you!
