I wouldn't put anything underneath to be honest, that design is lovely though!

Mabes lose the MBM from the drawing and have the face logo and web addy underneath, scaled to run the full width of the drawing.

No Slogan, just maybe madebymike.co.uk underneath so it’s a bit more prominent.

I'd offer to do the printing for you, but shipping would be rediculous.

I know what you guys are saying, but personally on the cloth bags at least I was thinking of going for the full shebang. I was inspired by these ones that Darren Hayman has with a detailed synthesiser

Image

It was Darren who actually did the image for this one for me as part payment for a pedal I built him a while back, although obviously the photo he used to make this is all from Benecol's work so it's honours even.

With the T shirts maybe we'll go for the logo in large on the pedal, but I think for the bags I just want something to catch people's eyes out and about and for them to investigate further. I'm pretty sure there aren't many cloth bags about with stompboxes on them.

Ahh one of those type bags, the canvas style ones you get stuff printed on - my OH did a few for her Childminding business.

I was hoping you'd do a courier style bag, so you could fit PEDALS IN IT!! :lol:

You can fit pedals in these type bags. Pedals, leads, strings - all that crap. Surely everyone has a catch all bag of extra stuff they use when rehearsing/gigging? I know I do.
