It would look good with a Fender decal too.

Agreed. What's the verdict on that here anyway? (decal) I have a really nice 60's one that I was planning to put on my first partscaster neck. Not planning on ever selling it or passing it off as a "real" Fender. Is that a no no?

I've heard of people marking the end of the neck and inside the pickup routes "parts guitar, non-genuine" and it seems to be acceptable....

EDIT: SWEET GUITAR BY THE WAY!!

But why would you want to put a Fender decal on a Tokai?

Very sweet.

Tokai got way closer with the color than Fender - at the veryleast the Tokai's look more like a 40 yr old original than the bubblegum pink MIJ's (or even the MIA's).
