Dear Members,

could you inform me where to get an Ibanez Veneer Headstock....compleet with the Ibanez Logo, and the ornament on it. Like the Artist, AM205/AS100,200 series.
In one of the postings is saw a restoration of an artist and the person had the veneer headstock removed.
Also a copy of the ornament could do the job too.
maybe Petruz ahs an Idea he is a Photoshop master.

As you know we are modding my AM66 and it would be nice to have that Ornament on the headstock.

Suggestions appreciated.


Thanks

Artfield

If I can do the job with Photoshop, no problem. But I don't think you need a virtual veneer, do you?
You could scan the veneer with a high resoution scanner and maybe print it... (god, this idea sucks).
You could get the scannered ornament to an artisan and get it done for yoy... many €€€€€ though. Maybe in the USA, I remember reading something here in ICW about a guy who engraves fretboards.

HI Petruz ,

thanks very very idea much i was thinking about that too...
i have to replace some strings on one of my AM205's so than i will scan the head stock, i think my luthier can engrave the logo in the headstock if he has an example.

Artfield, the veneer is rosewood. I think a good luthier could duplicate it as Petruz said.
