Alps MD 5000..Unfortunately they haven't been made since 2000 and on March 31, 2007 the support and exchange program will end forever. It's been getting hard to get ink cartridges for them..I tried to stock up when I received the notice.

Still waiting for pricing.

I like it...wish I had a "parts-o-caster"!

Just finished my Partscaster, all it needs is strings, a nut, and one of these new headstock decals!

Can't wait to order one Paul, great idea!

They are on order and I've worked on and off on the ordering page, but I'm buried in getting this site upgraded to the a new version of software.

The TDPRI headstock decals should be here today or tomorrow. As soon as I have them in hand I'll start selling these.

I'll make a general announcement and link to the order page.

Thanks

Are you going to put one on your Paisley partscaster?

Nope, the neck is a 1973 Fender Neck with the accompanying original decal. I personally don't have any need for one of these decals -- I'm not planning on building any guitars in the foreseeable future.

I can't wait! New neck will be here soon and my Partscaster will be ready for the TDPRI decal :)

Any news?

Good question. I paid for them 2 weeks ago and the guy says he shipped them 10 days ago. However, I've seen nothing yet. He checked in with me on Friday after it had been a week since he mailed them and when he learned that I didn't have them he told me that he would overnight another set by Monday (yesterday). But I still don't have anything to show for it yet.

I'll post here and elsewhere when they arrive.

Does the Pony Express still deliver? HAHAHA

Cool, well everybody here suckered me into a Bigsby'ed esquire, so I've got 2 Partscasters now (well, technically 3).

If this dude keeps it up, I may have half a dozen... hmm, I guess there's nothing wrong with that! HAHAHA

The decals just showed up and they look GREAT!

I've made a page to buy them via credit card (using PayPal, but you need not set up a PayPal account to use your credit card there).

You can order them by clicking: http://www.tdpri.com/DECAL-ORDER.htm

I'm charging $5 each for delivery in the US and $7 each for delivery outside of the US. Mailing costs are included in the above amounts. US shipments will be sent First Class Mail. International shipments will be shipped via Air Letter Post from the US Postal Service.

I tried to work out a multiple purchase discount as I discussed earlier but couldn't get the order processing to work this out correctly. Also, they can't be purchased by check because I have a limited number of decals (under 100) and I can't be sure they won't sell out before you could mail a check and have it be delivered to me.

Thanks for your support.
Paul

I just finished a partscaster this week and just ordered a TDPRI decal. Pics soon. Life is good! FYI--Paul, I see you are in Spring Branch, Tx. Our rehersal studio is in Spring Branch, and I grew up in that area. If you hear tele twangin' off Bingle Road, it's probably us!

Thanks for the order. However, you've got the wrong Spring Branch. I'm in Spring Branch just north of San Antonio. We keep hearing of a Spring Branch over by Houston, but I've never found it on a map. I see "Spring" on the map over there, but no Spring Branch.

Anyway, if I hear you all practicing then I've got 3 words for you guys, "TONE IT DOWN!"

Paul Green
PS. Why do people that are complaining about the band's volume say "tone it down" rather than "turn it down?"
