Have a shirt made with YOUR steel guitar on it. (or any other guitar - or any other image)

I work for The Guitar Shed. We operate music stores on military installations. We currently have stores at Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi, MS, and also at Naval Air Station - Pennsacola in Florida.

We have a partner vendor on base at Keesler, who has just acquired a Direct-To-Fabric printer.

Through him, we are able to offer high-quality custom printed shirts, with any image you submit. The higher resolution the image, the better the shirt will look. A higher resolution also means we can enlarge the picture more.

This printer produces a super high quality product. This is not your common screen-printed shirt that will fade & peel after a few rounds through the laundry. Another benefit of direct-to-fabric printing, is that you can get 1 or 2 shirts -- you don't have to order a dozen or more.

Several colors of shirts are available, but personally I think black shirts look best. Sizes are S - XL, with 2X and 3X available soon.

Prices are:
Shirt with image on Front or Back: $24.99
Shirt with image on Front AND Back: $34.99
USPS Flat Rate Priority Shipping $5.95

The shirt pictured, was made with simply an image I saved from a steel guitar website.

Steve, I'll be wanting a tee shirt, too, but I have a question on whether or not I should send the image as .JPG or .PSD and what dpi resolution you're needing. Please fire me a PM or email when you've got a chance.

Jim, I agree that info might help. What would be the max resolution you could handle? My slightly old Canon can take a 6.3 megapixel pic, is that too much or should I size it down some?

Any guidance deeply appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time and effort.

Jim and DG, I'll find out the technical info from the printer when I go back to work on Wednesday 4/15.

A jpeg should be fine, that's what I saved the Promat picture as from the website on the sample shirt. I'll find out Wednesday about the resolution / DPI info.

Steve, what I'm thinking about is a shirt like this mock-up example I made to suggest how it would look ...



I created an image of my actual Mullen in both a JPEG with white background and a transparency .PSD file so that it could be superimposed on other backgrounds, like a colored shirt. That's why I was asking about the format and required DPI resolution.

I'd love to have a shirt proudly displaying the Mullen logo and the image of my own guitar splashed across the front like that. Smile

Another idea for the shirt I'd like is ...



... the guitar image on the front with my name and, on the back, the Mullen logo with my own personal motto, "When you play the best ... why try the rest?" It'd be a fun shirt to wear at steel guitar shows. Smile
