Pumpkin Orange Jazzmaster

This:

plus a 2001 Squier Strat neck I got for free from a friend (awesome because there is NO skunk stripe):

Image

Should I get a Jazzmaster logo for it? How would a Jazzy logo look on a strat headstock? or I may just get a Fender logo like on lefty fenders... Thoughts?

man, i love those squier necks without the skunk stripe and the big ass black haggard rough ring around the truss rod hole.

WIN!

i would just do a black or white spaghetti fender logo. keep it simple, but it will match the guard if you do an white.

Logos are $20. What the fuck is that!

If anyone has any sort of waterslide fender logo for cheap I'll take it...

I think HNB makes his own. I need a Jazzmaster one too, also for a smaller Strat headstock like yours. We're gonna be twins.

Takes guts to paint any guitar. Definitely gets your attention. Looking at your moniker reminded me of a video I watched last night.

In the Netflix streaming documentary HIT SO HARD, HOEL drummer Patty Schimmel pronounced Mascis as Mace-kiss. I always thought it was mass-kiss. Kurdt wanted Schimmel for Nirvana before Dave Grohl. I couldn't help but like her.

And blank headstocks look hella weird. Either get a logo or maybe clear coat over a really rad NASA sticker or something.
