Charvel wants your opinion!

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

#1 Goes the hippy route, it's alright but I wouldn't wear it.
#2 Has the hot rod thing going for it, I like that but I don't like the knock-off GTA letters on it.
#3 Just plain sucks, a bicycle isn't really a symbol of power or style.

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

actually I said 3 & meant 2 is the one I like best.

I highly dought Jenna's association w/ Jackson was a quick decision w/ little thought. In truth I think it fits w/ what image they were trying to capture (it's a taboo thing).

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

Let me say it again, does it HAS to have 'Made in USA' on the T shirt, especially that big? I mean if I buy a T shirt it's for its design, not for what it says, but whether the guitar is made in Tumbuctu or not, I don't care, and I doubt many people do as long as they like it. The Made in USA bit is just pretty useless. If it's part of the logo, can't it be smaller, or hidden inside the collar or something? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

it's not useless; it's something that we in the states take pride in.

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

The designs are cool. Whatever you make, please offer TALL sizes. :^)

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

The Van is ghetto, and the bicycle? Well you might as well have a big wheel on a t-shirt. The car is the best of the featured designs but why not go with what makes Charvel kick the ass of everything else..the guitar? Plain ole Charvel Strat with hotrod flames, maple and a pointy stock.

As for the whole porn star business, well at least Jackson got a porn star everyone has heard of. I dunno who the hell that one BC Rich got is but I sure as hell never heard of her (though in terms of personal preference of the two I prefer the BC Rich one over Jenna). Whats funny is they basically took the whole Dean concept, and went lowbrow by going with porn stars, Dean may well have used porn stars in the past but they never really advertised it or used "name" porn stars. As far as us guitar players knew Dean just had hot women posing with guitars. So while I am all for Jenna getting a job that doesn't require her being pounded into oblivion on a daily basis (and I ain't talking martial arts here) I personally would prefer if the companies kept it about the guitars, at the very least don't make it such a big deal that you got some porn star endorsing your guitars.

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

I like #2 the best. The others are alright. I would like to see one with a HRF guitar.

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

I agree that if they are going for a 'hot rod' idea, that they need to stay in the golden era of Charvel, with hot rod cars symbolizing that time period, such as a blown, dual carbed Firebird from the mid 70's. I'd also rather see something from the style of 'Cartoons' magazine, than these tentative designs.

Personally, I'd rather have something along the lines of Toby's designs on the back and a simple Charvel logo on the left breast on the front of the T-shirt. The designs should stay black and white, but feature full colour graphics on the bodies of the guitars, IMO.

Charvel may have forgotten the demographics of the clientelle when they had the designs contracted out. A low rider bike?

[/ QUOTE ] Really, what is the problem with the "Made is USA"? I think you may be in the minority on this, Pott.

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

I want design on a T shirt, not writing. I'm not American and I couldn't care less of the Made in USA as long as the guitar play nice. There could have been written 'made in China' or 'made in greenland' it'd just be the same to me... It just feels weird. Just saying what I think, that's it. It's nothing bad against the MIA itself, I just don't get why it's written so darn big. It just shouldn't matter much on a T shirt.

+1

Not to mention the fact that, currently, the only Charvels being produced are made in the USA. [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img]

Re: Charvel wants your opinion!

I don't like any of them.

Give me a black shirt with a small gold Charvel logo on the breast and a big gold Charvel logo across the back...simple.
