I bought myself a Fender American Professional Classic Jazzmaster in Faded Dakota Red. My first offset ever.

First off… HUGE thank you to everyone who contributed ideas. The creativity, humor, and inside-guitarist jokes in that thread were incredible. This is exactly the kind of community collaboration we want to build here 🙌 We went through every submission and narrowed the list down to the Top 10 phrases. How we chose them We didn’t just pick our personal favorites. We looked at what actually makes a phrase work as a great t-shirt: • Easy to read from across the room • Instantly relatable to guitar players • Funny or emotionally resonant • Short and punchy • High viral / gift potential • Something you’d proudly wear in public In other words, phrases that have real merch potential, not just good jokes in a comment thread. We will most likely turn several of these into shirts, but we want the community to help decide which one deserves to be made first 👀 So we’re using Skool’s poll feature below ⬇️ Vote for your favorite! 🎸 THE TOP 10 FINALISTS (In no particular order) 1️⃣ I ONLY NEED ONE MORE GUITAR!!!! 2️⃣ There's no such thing as too many guitars 3️⃣ Life is short, buy the guitar 4️⃣ Sorry I'm late… I was chasing tone 5️⃣ If it sounds good, IT IS GOOD 6️⃣ I don't need therapy, I have strings 7️⃣ My neighbors are listening to great music whether they like it or not 8️⃣ If you hit the wrong note once, it's a mistake. If you hit it twice, it's your style. If you hit it three times, it's jazz!! 9️⃣ I said I played guitar, I didn't say I played well 🔟 I Guitar, Therefore I Am Cast your vote and help decide which phrase becomes an official Omni Guitars shirt 👕🔥 We seriously appreciate all of you being part of building this with us. This is just the beginning. 🎶

So I got a bday present for myself (with help from my girlfriend). I’ve wanted one of these for so long. This is a custom made “Kelly-caster” made by Rick Kelly of carmine street guitars. He makes these out of reclaimed wood growth wood from historic buildings in NYC, selecting the most resonant pieces for these tone machines he calls “The Bones of Old New York”. Each one is unique in style and history. The wood for mine comes from the old speakeasy “Chumleys” at 86 Bedford (where the phrase 86’d was invented). If you’re interested there is a documentary on this legendary shop in YouTube and Tubi just called carmine street guitars about Rick and his protege, Cindy, making these insanely cool guitars. They also have an instagram showcasing what they are working on. After living in NYC for 8 years I feel so lucky to be carrying home a piece of the city in guitar form.
