As a quick update, we did receive an initial design on the shirt and it was unfortunately pretty awful, to be honest. I know what you're thinking: how difficult is it to slap an already-professionally-designed CMYK logo on a shirt, right? I only wish I had a ready answer for that -- LOL. :-) Anyway, suffice it to say that it's back over to the shirt vendor for a Round 2.

Also: unfortunately our merch guy is out of the office this week so we are in a bit of a holding pattern at the moment. We'll have to keep bumping this thread for a bit here. We *WILL* get our Forums shirt, though, rest assured!


Brad, if its worth having its worth waiting, I for sure will be ordering!

Thanks Brad
Glad you didnt mind the bumps, it felt a bit self serving.

cant wait to see them.


Well, the shirt *IS* going to happen so that's the motive for bumping there's no need. But, that said, I definitely don't mind the occasional bump in terms of keeping it fresh in visitors' minds so everyone's ready to pounce once the shirt does become available. After all, once we make the shirts the idea here is to demonstrate that there is indeed demand from this community as that will no doubt lead to additional opportunities in the future. I'd love to see us sell through the first production batch of these lickety-split and have to order more!

The latter was indeed my motivation, I too am looking forward to seeing them sell out at the speed of light.

This forum is a great gift from the Fender Company and we need to gather as many devotees as we can, both to help educate newcomers to the music business, hobby ect... and to show Fender it is worth their time, Money and efforts.

I learn something new here every day and look forward to talking shop with some of the guys who have far more experience in the technical stuff than I.

a guy in the modern amps section just saved me a huge repair bill and a lot of time and frustration, this forum works !!!!!

Sunburst would be really cool 8) I want sunburst!!


Cherry Sunburst rather than tobacco though.....

Bottom line is people want some colors, not black.

If you make it, we will buy... :lol:

I like the logo here on the page that says fender Lounge. Maybe move the Stratocaster over some and put a Tele going in the otjher direction that way they both get a little rep. mabe even a few bubbles rising up from the champaingn glass. I like the colors as is and think it would look good on the back of a tee not the front. The red yellow,white would look great on a black tee with white outlined bubbles rising from the glass . Lets keep this post up there to keep people ready to buy!

That's a good idea, to use the existing logo, just offer it in a couple colors.

I'm still holding out hope that someday they will offer a shirt with more than a Strat , Tele, or P Bass on 'em.

You guys know the deal, if you ask 100 people what it should look like you will have 100 different designs, so we need to be realistic here.

The logo should come off just about like it does at the top of this page asking for alterations to please a few people is a good way to get this project canned.

sure I would love to have a two tone burst and a surf green one to match my two favorite Strat colors, but what we are after here is a way to show our loyalty to Fender and thanks for this site they have so kindly given us to play with!!!!

anyway thanks for your support and ideas, like Brad has said this May be just the start of the possibilities of what our ideas and Fenders ablilities can conceive and produce, if we play nice and this works, think of the possibilities!!!!!

True True but you gota admit bubbles floating up in the air out of the glass would be cool. Keeps the post out there and interest going.

I think the logo is fine the way it is. I think if you include name of members on the back it would be a nightmare. It might be better to say serving members in these countries and then list the countries. That way nobody gets insulted for not making the list for whatever reason/criteria.
