I too thought this was just a bluesy nickname. I was about to post a picture of my suggested changes. It was going to be "The Cipriano" in braille. I'm glad I didn't; then I would look like as much of a DB as Tony does. With that in mind, I would like to latch on to Tony's blanket explanation that he never means offense. I too like to bust people's chops and often forget to use the lame emoticons to the left.*


*This of course doesn't apply to anything bad I say about Costa, I can't stand that guy!




:P

The tuners on the 1 and 6 strings are sticking out farther than the others. It might be giving a different look. I'd say loose the "the" and even the tuners out. 1st fret inlays are a little to chunky sometimes. I love the name inlay alot. It looks very classy with the swirl going under it.

No offense taken on my part and it doesn't bother me in the least when people make jokes - especially if they're funny! I don't even think about my vision most of the time, it's really only an issue with depth perception, you probably don't want me pouring your wine or lighting your cigarette for you. You are right - it was blues inspired....but legit!

Well we finally came back round to #3 after all :-)
Project is wrapped up. Thanks for your input!

Went through a few more permutations of the script logo:

Then revisited #3 for fun:

Turns out Roberto liked it so well we did a connected version which turned out to be the final design.

Hope you all enjoyed the process as much as I did. Appreciated the input!

uh oh.....

you for to put the "The".

:lol:

Very nice work. I thought all of the designs looked great and it was neat to see all of the different variations. Also it's a big positive on your part when your customer is happy with your work.

Congrats
