Our Ideas & Additional Information
Lead Guitar is being started by 2 friends with a common passion for rock music and the icons of the instrument.
Lead Guitar is being created from a lifelong passion for music, guitars, guitarists, and the styles and tones that made them legends.
We are based in Nashville Tennessee, which has a diverse community of musicians - but everyone respects the icons of the guitar world, regardless of musical style. Nashville is also home to Gibson guitars. People love the home team.
For this contest, it's important to understand Nashville's connection to every genre of music as well. It's the largest community of musicians in the US. It's far from just country music.
Some things we feel you need to include:
We'd love to see a bold (courageous), memorable font - think “rock band font” ( actual rock bands, not the video game).
The font and design should be timeless and expresses “luxury (high cost) brand”, therefore quality in the design is essential.
We want a design that says "Yeah that's a guitar logo" but not necessarily have a guitar or guitar imagery - there's too much room for confusion or "discrimination". However something like a guitar pick is an obvious icon reference that is subtle enough to combine all genres of the guitar field. That said, we are certainly open to imagery that has an actual guitar reference. You might include the body, neck, headstock, strings, cables, pedals, amplifier grill, etc.
Remember - this is an EMBLEM logo so we're not interested in anything that's not in an emblem style. Please see the attachments we feel capture the vibe we are looking for.
