OK, my new pet-peeve. The size of logos on manufacturers products.

Is it just me or are these a wee bit over-the-top in size???

However, this one doesn't bother me at all for some reason. /emoticons/default_ph34r.png

At least the Seymour Duncan logo is easy to remove (and they'll gladly make any pickup without the logo, if you order it that way).

I was gonna say, isn't the stadium logo worshipped around here?

I like the SL on 6-on-a-side headstocks (or 4-on-a-side headstocks for basses) and the Impact headstock. I don't like it on 3+3 headstocks.

+1 on this one....the picture doesn't give you a good idea of just how large it is...it would look huge on a 4x12, much less the 1x12...I got to looking at mine the other day and discovered it pulls off/out fairly easily if you're gentle with the few glue spots that hold it in place. Now I've got 4 eraser size holes where the grill cloth was stretched to make room for the posts, but MUCH better imo.

 
Right ON!! I hate branding on traditional-style, exposed-coil pickups. It looks CHEAP!! It's a glaring example of Marketing defeating Design. I mean, I get that there are alot of replacement pickup makers out there... Should the hardware and the wood and the knobs and the nut all have logos on them, too?!

I don't care about the rationale(s). It's a sign of OUR times.
