There you go. Probably not going to be able to do much else this evening, but if you got any more requests, just ask.

I think there's probably a similar but better font for the one I did. I like the idea of mixing A Fender style colour scheme (blak outline and gold inside) with a non Fender placement of the model name.

Anybody know of a font that resembles the writing used for the Fender logo? Either the original spaghetti style or the CBS style would be good. I've been looking for one for a while, but I've had no luck.

I like the last one Malik did. There's a real craft to coming up with branding because the wrong cursive can look crap. You either want it to look close to Fender, or like you are deliberately trying not to look like Fender (or Gibson, etc.). I can do a treatment of the CBS Fender look using Brush Script, but you have to monkey with the lettering. I imagine the Fender logo was a one-off in an old font, or it never made the digital transition. People used to know how to make that shit by hand.

Or you could use SLAYER!

Okay, this is the one I came up with. I used a faux FO, like SAY YER FOXY! THis was Brush Script, but I had to rework the Y. Malik's FAUX XII is a lot closer to the Fender style.
