R&D feedback wanted

[Chickee]

I purchased a T-Style electric last week as an inexpensive platform for a light modding makeover.
The guitar is great, all I could hope for and honestly, more than I expected.

Trouble is the manufacturer’s name. EART. Hmmm. What were they thinking? If you look fast, as my family has been telling me every time they pass the guitar, it looks like FART. I’m pretty sure FART doesn’t mean anything significant in China, where this guitar hails from, but here in the good ole U.S.of A. it carries it’s own historic legacy of mellifluous tones and tunes.

In an effort to “neutralize” this situation I have been thinking of ways to modify the name on the headstock. Finding the same typeface would be improbable as well as impossible, so I thought of adding a graphic as a stylized letter into the mix.

Here are the test mules. Feedback requested please.

I'd leave it as is - or if you're looking for a suitable logo: FART ...

- and if they ever decide to market a reliced, vintage-spec series to us card-carrying AARP members, they could label it "OLD FART"...

Thank you for playing along, Steve! I really needed a laugh tonight.

I like the earth picture after the EART logo. The rest of the stuff is very funny but not something I would want on a keepsake guitar.

The heart in front of the EART logo is good, too, but from a male perspective, I would prefer the earth picture after the EART logo.

Yes Glenn, I agree. This was all in good fun. The only thing going on that headstock is locking tuners and updated string trees! I was just having a little fun my friend.

I think this will be the finale design for the headstock logo!

Boy I need more coffee this morning. I can't tell if this is a joke thread or not

' Earth ' was the name of John Ossie Osbourne's band before he became OZZIE. Saw them live in '69.

Why not just sand the name off refinish it and have be a mystery guitar
