Does anyone know if the maunfacturer will re-logo my headstock if i decide to refinish the bass?

If not are there any places you know of for accurate logos?

Hey Idol,

Welcome aboard!! I'm going to take a "guess" as say probably not, because at that point it is "not" factory.

I'm sure someone will come aboard with a definitive answer.:)

so basically if you have a painted headstock that looks like crap or you want to paintmatch headstock to body you're hosed...bummer

i understand with the amount of knockoffs and bootlegs out there why they wouldn't wanna repro headstock logos...but to not redo a modern logo on a headstock that has genuine factry markings just seems silly.

IDK maybe im asking too much... thanks for the info guys

Actually no company does it, any of the fender or gibson logos you see are fakes or ripped off from a factory source.

A person can actually make them easily with supplies available on the net.

I don't see why so many people get bummed out about this. I would understand if every other company offered replacement logos or service and MM didn't but that's not the case.
Either live with the color it is, regardless of the condition or sell it and get a color you like.

If you're going to refinish the neck it may be worth the extra expense of getting a new one from Ernie Ball (but you'll have to give them your old one).

The neck would prob have to be fitted at the factory.

As has been mentioned many times, the factory doesn't 'retrofit' anything.

The logo is silkscreened on to the headstock....ergo, no "stickers".

So....that's enough of this thread, as the question has been asked and answered and further diddling about will only lead to heartbreak.

the always thinking of YOU,

Jack
