The phrase that got the most love in Round 1 was: “I said I played guitar, I didn’t say I played well.” So… we went ahead and had a design made for it 👀🔥 Before we move forward with production, I want REAL feedback from the community: ✅ Is this something you would actually buy and wear proudly? ✅ What do you think of the overall design? ✅ Should we change the font style or colors? ✅ What do you think about the guitar choice? For the guitar, we went with a Stevie Ray Vaughan / Hendrix-style Fender Strat vibe 🎸 Don’t hold back either...honest feedback helps us make these designs WAY better before launch 🙌

I've bought quite a bit of new gear over the past few months. Most of the guitars are budget brands like Glarry and Fesley. Got them from Temu or MAC.BID, an online auction site. MAC.BID has several locations throughout the US, so there might be one near you. I highly recommend checking MAC.BID out if there is. Most items on auction have a Buy It Now price, like eBay. WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS -- Glarry Semi-Hollow Telecaster SH configuration (Red -- Temu) -- Fesley HSS Strat-Style (Purple -- Temu) -- Pyle Nylon String Classical (MAC.BID $16 - 80% less than retail price - Blue - I need to learn how to tie nylon strings) -- No Name Strat Copy (White -- Temu) - I had my friend's band, Throckmore, sign it. I need to seal it and put their logo sticker on the headstock (seal it too, so it doesn't pull up) - so it's the Throckmore guitar -- No name Ibanez copy (White & Purple -- Temu) -- Redpepper 12-string acoustic-electric (Black -- Temu) -- 88-key electric piano (MAC.BID -- $21 - 81% less than retail price) -- Beat Buddy 2 Drum pedal (direct from Singular Sound) -- Roadie 4 powered string winder/tuner (Kickstarter) [UPDATE] I don't think I've mentioned or shown these off either, so I'll show them too... PURCHASES WITHIN THE LAST YEAR -- Fender FA-25CE Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar (702 Auctions - Local Online Auction Website) -- 2 Fender Squier Debut Series Stratocasters (1 Red and 1 Sunburst -- 702 Auctions) -- M-VAVE Multifunctional Electric Guitar Effects Pedal with 9 Classic Amp Simulations (Temu) -- No-Name Acoustic Guitar (Blue - Temu) -- Fender Jazzmaster Replica (Fake) Electric Guitar (Metallic Purple - Temu) -- Glarry Strat Copy (Dirty Yellow - Temu) -- EVH Wolfgang Standard Replica (Fake - Frankenstrat Finish - Temu) -- YangShen Guitars HSH Strat-Style (Deep Green - Temu) -- Glarry HSH Strat-Style (Blue Lightning Bolt Finish - Temu) -- Squier Classic Vibe '60s Jazzmaster (White - 702 Auctions)
