Haven't had a suggestion that I like yet. Van? A definate no go! The case? Obvious, but......obvious! Make a dress? Not my style, although I am a Rocky Horrer fan! Inside of the toilet seat? I see where Johns coming from, but too precious for that!

There has to be somewhere to stick it!!!!
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

Make sure you roll them up beforehand, Dan!! Papercuts are one thing, but foil???........

You're inviting all sorts of unsavoury suggestions, Tony!! How about the inside of the front door......... a daily reminder (as if you need it!).

Exactly my take on it, Howard. I was wondering if anybody else would get it...

I just put mine on the mirror over my bar (in my basement/rec room). Nothing too special but it looks nice.

I have an ancient one that was on a case when I bought the bass second hand 5 years ago. It's black and silver and traditional shaped.

To increase their longevity and avoid deterioration due to ultraviolet light, stickers should be placed where the sun doesn't shine.

For example, on an article of clothing discussed at length on another thread, the name of which I dare not mention...

Dan, Mike Parks at www.the-music-connection.com sells them for about $2.00 apiece.

I got them stuck all over my garage.

I've put mine inside the cover of my tool box!
That way, when I'm working on the car and everything is going wrong, I look at it and remind myself that I'm a better musician than a car mechanic!!!! Image

That's why I have a Snap-On sticker on my Rick case.
