I am refinishing a Gibson LDO accoustic and need to take the headstock down to bare wood. Can I get an authenic Gibson gold headstock decal anywhere?

Thanks

Danny R. Little

I have seen them on a regular basis on eBay. I dont think They are genuine Gibson decals, but look just like them to me.. nobody but you and our hair dresser would know the difference :D

Just becarefull to look closely at what you buy. I bought a Gibson logo for a restoration on a Les Paul. The font ended up being a little thick. More like "BOLD". I didn't notice it until I was almost done.

Look at the overall fonts and see that they match what you are working on.

Hard to see it here, but it is the Gibson on the far left. The logo is thick compared to the ones I bought from an old Gibson dealer.
