No better advice than what Mike just said.

This reminds me of the saying, "just because you could doesn't mean you should"

While it would vary of course, what size would usually be used for a headstock veneer? 1.5mm? 2.00mm? I've got a project I'm gonna try this on, see how it turns out.Originally posted by sully View PostComment

The ones that I've used are generally the .10mm thickness.Comment

Doesn't look like an option (they've got .25mm, .50mm, etc.), can you point me to a place I could find that thickness? Thanks again!Originally posted by sully View PostComment

Oops, sorry - bad decimal usage on my part! It's the first option on that page; item number VBF10.
Granted, that's gonna be super thin, and you may want the .020.Comment

Heres an idea. Get some veneer and if you know anyone local with a laser engraver, have them lightly burn the Jackson logo into the veneer. At the right setting it will only lightly color(darken) the logo into the veneer then dye it and apply it and clear.
To give you an idea of what I mean, herez a pic of adhesive veneer that I laser engraved my daughters face on.

That's actually a badass idea. It won't work with this current project I don't think (it's a white logo on black background), but I might have to try it on my next go.Comment

Hi I'm new to the forum and love the guitars and people on here from what I see. I saw this thread and I know what your going through. I did this Frechie graphic with vinyl decals and a white Mighty Mite body. I used 2K urethane and it took some patience and a lot of wet sanding. Also its important to know the vinyl sits much higher than if the headstock was painted.
