So is that a wet decal or did you use a separate adhesive? It certainly looks nice. I've known folks who can use a Leroy lettering tool to do things like that with ink but I don't have one of those (used one a LOT back in the day) and not sure if I would want to take that much time and effort anymore.
Thanks,

I used Inkscape software. It¡¯s free. There¡¯s a free knob scale plugin for it.
Saved that to a .SVG file and emailed it to a local print shop. They printed
it to a clear matte material (could have done glossy). I wanted it to look
nice

Thanks! It was an endeavor but I¡¯m pleased with how it turned out. Despite
all my messy wiring inside, it¡¯s very quiet noise wise

Nice job Brian! Looks like an L-7-PS! As a multi Strat player/owner I
get it! Been wanting to re-create a Fender amp someday.

Pardon me. This isn¡¯t exactly Drake. I just finished my first build
from
scratch. A tube bass guitar preamp. Since I love Drake gear, I decided
to make it remotely resemble an AC4 or L4PS. Two 12AX7s and one 12DW7.
Just wanted to share it.
