NEEDED Thunderbird Logo

kyral210 · #1 10-02-2008, 06:54 AM

Hi

I am making a new black scratchplate for my epi thunderbird goth, and want a white thunderbird logo; sounds easy. However I need to draw the logo on my computer to get it milled by a machine. So here is the problem

I need a high resolution scanning (photo scanner minimum) of the thunderbird logo. If anyone has a Gibson thunderbird (or even Epiphone with the t-bird logo) and you wouldnt mind removing the scratch plate, scanning it in, and then sending me the scan via email, please message me. I would really appreciate any and all help you can give me.

Thanks

Chris

Ok, thanks for the high res image. I will go away and try and generate a vector map from it. If I got my design sorted, would anyone be interested in buying a black Thunderbird Scratchplate with a white T-Bird logo? I am guessing around £30 ($60) retail.

i have done one to use in my Epi goth thunderbird (now Epibson Thunderbird eheheh). If you want it in vectorial format, just drop me a message and i can send it to you.

i traced de image myself. It's hard, but is done!

or download it here..

It's in full size. so you just have to download it and go to a store to cut it.

Simple as that.

Have fun

Thanks!

Just a quick question,

You just took this vector image into a store (what kind of store) and they just printed it out on a big chunk of plastic? Or did they cut and bevel it for you too?

to a vinil cut store..

I'm searching for a black pickguard with the thunderbird logo and they just don't seem to be around!

I've seen them on the Epi Thunderbird Pro bass, so they do exist: http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend....ass?sku=581657

Ideally i'd like the logo in gold - to match the "Epiphone" insignia on the trussrod cover. I'd settle for white however

Hey somebody please upload again the vector Thunderbird logo...

Just thought I'd throw this in here, if someone wants it.
Cooked it up a while back, PM me if you want a higher resolution.
