  • GMW - To logo or not to logo....

    What are your thoughts on GMW logos? I have 3 guitars almost ready to leave there and was thinking about adding the GMW logo to them (if the headstocks didn't get cleared already)

    There really are no other identifying marks such as serial numbers or even logo'd neck plates.

    GMW reminds me of what Wayne was doing back in the day and they are making the same guitars, only better, and to our custom orders.

    So why would someone pay $3K-$5K for 20 year old Charvel that only cost $600 - $1200 back in the 80s and not believe that the same can be true for GMWs 20 years from now.

    Is it that most of the "enthusiasts" will be into their 50s & 60s and not care?

    Will there be a new breed of collectors out there trying to get their hands on these guitars?

    Let's have some feed back on this.

    I would have GMW decals applied.

      better a gmw logo than a fuckin charvel one. i actually don't understand why gmw gives the option of no logo in the first place. they made the guitar, it should have their logo on it.

        Yeah, they should inlay it right into the wood in pearl with a teflon outline.

            I'd say come up with a new GMW logo for them if possible. That logo with the Led Zeppelin script just looks lame. Something in maybe a bold Arial or Tahoma font would look cool..

            <font face="Arial" size=14>GMW</font>
            <font face="Tahoma" size=14>GMW</font>

              I would love to have GMW logo on my Dinky when I send my guitar for refret job or any future orders I will have with Lee.
              I think it is good to have the logo instead of blank headstock face.

                That makes me wonder if they'd sell less guitars if their logo had to be on the headstock [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img] profiting on the wanabee market? [img]graemlins/brow.gif[/img] But they use a strat shape headstock. How come they can do that??

                    Looks like the Monkees logo to me.

                      wow...very different opinions.

                      I am going to do it because let's face it....they ARE GMW guitars...not anything else.

                        GMW logo all the way. I like their logo and think it should be there. Wear it with pride!

                            The GMW logo is OK, and I would use it. However, I'm not thrilled with its size relative to a strat headstock. I wish they would do a smaller size, like maybe 3/4ths what it is now, as that would look more proportional to the headstock.

                              The GMW logo looks OK to me, but could probably use an update. As previously mentioned, Lee needs to start offering MOP inlayed logo as well.
