You are correct, sir!

Today was machine day...I am a machine machine.

Lol, whenever I see your 3x3 headstock I think to myself "wouldn't it be cool if that was an actual bottle opener built into the heastock"

Sounds like an opportunity for an optional accessory.... :o

From day one with the inline headstock shape people said it reminded them of a bottle opener, so I continued the theme with the 3+3.

I think the logo on a bottle opener and a business card is all I will need for attendees at Summer NAMM to remember my brand.

Thanks, I'm hoping that one will be a hit!

I've come up with a way to rearrange the guitars to allow the logo to be a more prominent part of the display.

I will have two horizontal hangers above the logo with the guitars sloping up and to the right parallel to the angled bottom of the "L" in the logo.

The guitars below and to the sides of the logo will mirror each other from the right side to the left.

The great news here is that I will still have as many guitars displayed in the same space.
