NEW Forum Truss Rod Cover Design Contest

[bodia]

I always liked Jesse's flag design. But...with Maryland now in the Big Ten conference, I'll feel like a traitor putting that on my guitar

Hmmm.....good point. I hadn't thought of that. As a respectable (ok, somewhat respectable) Hawkeye, I'd have change my appearance to go out in public.

Here is an idea I had. I know I'm not an old guy here but I know I'd love to have a forum TRC so I thought I would toss in a design or two. Got a couple more I am working on. I hope you don't mind jfb I used your template for the background.

Very nice Lynn!

 

[lynnj163]

Very nice Lynn!

Thank you!

Here's one on some wood with abalone. Not sure if it would be possible to inlay such small details but thought I would mock it up anyway.

I like this too! I like a bunch of the others too, but I like the name written out instead of PRS

 

[kes7u]

Oh yes. VERY NICE!!!

Thanks, glad that you guys are liking it!

This one has my vote! Although I doubt we would be able to get a wooden inlaid version such as this, far too cost prohibitive. But I'd still take an etched version like our previous TRC.

Yeah I figure if it gets made it would probably be a brushed/etched aluminum like the older ones I've seen. It would work out better for me anyway because the wood covers wouldn't really match my guitars. Something like this.

Nicely done Lynn.

Oh Yeah, I like this a lot also. Thanks for taking my minimal idea and making it awesome

 

[Mesaman]

Awesome! I like Lynn's also. That one gets my vote, if it counts.

EDIT: Disregard, see next post.

Once Shawn feels enough designs have presented, he'll pic a few and make a poll. WE will get the final choice from that pool of designs.

I'm hoping that a few more members submit designs. Goldtop had some in the last round that were quite good and I'm still working on a design Rod sent me... Jon should submit new ones.

But there must be others out there with designs in their heads. C'mon guys, let's see your ideas.

That is very nice

 

[DISTORT6]

Nice, lynnj163.

 

[vchizzle]

Likely too big for a TRC, but a baby dragon(like the West St LTD guitar) might be cool.

Here is some Maryland pride for ya

We'll give it some more time to allow others to work on their ideas.

BTW- The designs so far are terrific!
