they're both solid looking shirts. however, seems to me that the peppermint fuzz, w/its sweet logo, is screaming for a red & white t-shirt. jmo.

The 'orange' looks red on my monitor, but yeah, I like 'em both. That said, I'll be patiently waiting for the red & gold Sunface t-shirt.

+1. Mike, you should consider offering KOT, Sunface, Sunlion, etc shirts. To each, his own...

I think the graphic looks awesome on the purple...BUT, I don't see myself wearing a purple t-shirt. If possible, why not offer them in both colors?

Thanks for the comments, Peppermint shirt is a cool idea and easy to print...

I think you need to use your imagination for the orange shirt, I don't have photoshop on my new PC yet so I could not edit it.

It's expensive to get different colors printed so I would prefer a run of one or the other, to get started on the custom shirts.

thanks!

I'd probably rather wear the orange one but the purple is more authentic, ay?

PS: I agree about the Peppermint Fuzz shirt.

Honestly, neither appeal to me. I'd say black because it's the new black. Or dark blue perhaps.

IMO of course.

The purple one looks sick! I'd definitely buy that one.

I just wore my black AM - WDPR shirt today.

I would not want (or wear) a KOT or any pic of a pedal on my shirt - looks like a bad fax print

I dig the old ones.

Now if you just took the Sun Lion logo and made a shirt, now that's cool.

Skip the whole pedal, just got for the logo's

HTH

- DStefani

Append: The current AM shirt, shows that your into some cool stuff. I know that if I'm around town and someone recognizes it, it's a common cool thing. (I'm in Idaho, so it's a big deal right?) Most people are just trying to figure out what it is, I like that.

Now the pic of the pedal - it's WAY too 'start trek convention' level geek for me. The coolness factor is so low that it would be mandatory to wear it 2 sizes too small and only breath through your mouth while wearing it!

Mike... your geek is showing! ;-)

Which leads us to the question,.. which came first... the electronics geek, or the way to cool due who drives race cars and hangs with the big name players?

I'm thinking little Mikey the geek, who went on to get some serious cool.

Now who said Makers Mark doesn't make you smarter?!?!?!

You da man there Mike!

+1 for just doing the logo for eac of the pedals you make. If you do I'm in for at least two. Color of the shirt should be contrasting to the logo.

They both look cool but do the big logo on the back of the shirt and a smaller company logo on the front. That's a better look. Having a giant logo on the front looks kinda dorky (just being honest).

Also, purple and white NOT purple and gold!

I totally disagree. I won't wear a shirt with a small logo on the front and big one on the back. It reminds me of something a lawyer would wear on vacation. I dig the purple one. On my screen, the orange one looks more like red, which I like. In fact, red with the yellow print would be pretty cool. Anyway, I voted purple and yellow.

Like the logo - not too keen on the colors.

Mike I like the idea of a T-Shirt per Analogman pedal.

The colour should reflect the appearance of the pedal.

Better marketing this way too as it reinforces the complete pedal appearance.

I would skip the picture of the pedal and just have your logo with the appropriate symbol for that particular pedal, just have the compass that's on the KOT or the Sun on the Sunface? I really like the sun with shades on the Bi-Chorus as well. I would wear that shirt, especially if it came in rock star black, as mentioned before black is the new black.

Having an image of the entire pedal is pretty distracting and I would not want knobs on my shirt, I know some jokester out there would try and adjust them.

Hey Loni!

I would do clear plastic but I can't get hot chicks to buy our shirts.

Sounds like our current shirt?

That gets us back to the hot chicks wearing the shirts, and strategic location of the knobs....

Mike, You know what impressed me the most of you at the NYAmpShow?
Your effortless ability to conduct 6 conversations at once whilst listening (and commenting) to Mark Hitt playing; at the same time getting me to order via your LapTop so that I could walk out with a SunFace..........
Cool.
Best, Pete.

That sounds like a normal afternoon at my shop, with the addition of the UPS guy coming in for a COD check and my daughter texting me to pick her up at school while I sign a batch of KOT bottom plates and try to eat my lunch.
