Fire-heated irons require precise timing and consistent heat throughout the branding head to get a consistent brand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1604079062247-290RMLKV4S7BRL13EMOM/IMG-2856.jpg Blog - Branding a Headstock Logo After lots of testing, I realized that the heat-fired iron was just too inconsistent to use on the headstock itself. I ended up finding a maple cutoff from this neck and made several attempts on that before achieving the result I wanted. Since the design was exactly 1” wide, I used a 1” forstner bit to make a recess in the headstock. Then I cut out the brand in the maple cutoff, sanded it into a perfect 1” circle, and inlaid it into the headstock. Above is the final placement on a PM Custom T Deluxe headstock. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1617979031517-NQ1CHV76W8CR867QCSJH/IMG_7691.jpg Blog - Branding a Headstock Logo After final sanding, finishing, and stringing up, the finished product. https://www.pmcustomguitars.com/about daily 0.75 2021-04-06 https://www.pmcustomguitars.com/home daily 1.0 2021-04-05 https://www.pmcustomguitars.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-11-02 https://www.pmcustomguitars.com/custom daily 0.75 2021-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1598798450524-DM8JNCG7BAH5WCEJWCV2/20190426_223040.jpg Custom https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1600134848786-RYOSCPMSMS26BPREX7OT/20200603_213309.jpg Custom https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1598798746087-CJT8ZH240AUOC13O8TCO/Copy+of+bottlerock-2016-in-photos-body-image-1464673766.jpg Custom https://www.pmcustomguitars.com/shop daily 0.75 2020-11-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f468c788e2ea2600d031ddf/1598635352182-IQA40IL2D213094RJQCO/20180520_230952.jpg Shop - Have another design in mind?
