I am thinking about printing some CBG t-shirts. I have been playing around with a few designs and offer this design up for feedback. What do you like and dislike? Please don't hold back critical comments or suggestions.

Bigger, thicker font for your top text line. Vary the line weights more on your CBGs. Emphasize the "revolutionary" aspect by arranging the CBGs in a circle around the amp, headstocks out.

Better, worse, other suggestions or feedback?

Looks good, I like the primitive artwork, it goes good with what we build. :)>

Looks great. I would buy one of they were black with white letters. I ride a Harley and all my t's have to be black

Thanks. I'll let you know if I print them in black sometime.

Yah, me too. Black, and XXL. Some of us are big boys ;-)
CC,

I like the artwork and aarangement in second one, but like the title font in the first one. I think what I meant by "bigger and thicker" was the same font but bolder, and a larger size. You're gettin' there. I'd buy one. Wonder how it would look white on black (I favor black Tees)?

I like the original more in every way possible. Be careful bolding the fonts as it doesn't match the line drawings. The hand drawn look is popular now in t-shirts. The first version looks very casual but that said, the arrangement of the guitars is a little unbalanced on the right side. Maybe try swapping the amp and whatever that thing is with lines coming off the fretboard (lower right corner). Also maybe add/switch out with a banjo and diddly bo.

The 2nd version text is terrible.

I do printing for a living so if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask.

I have these for sale now. Thanks for your feedback and help. Shirts are $20, Vinyl decals are $5, ($23 for both). Free shipping within the US. International shipping available, email me. Shirts are printed on Gildan "ultra cotton" and are available in Med, Large, and x-Large. Color is "chestnut" but I would call it brown.

If anyone is interested, send me an email at cedarcreekstrings@gmail.com and let me know what you want. I will send you an invoice that can be paid with credit card or paypal. Images can also be seen on my CBNation personal page.
