Id suggest hiring a graphic designer to get some input outside the pool community. The logo should reflect maybe your style or philosophy. Just having your initials doesnt set you apart anymore. Tim Scruggs had TS for a long time. Too many cuemakers in the world these days. If its just going to be your initials, do all of them in silver or gold or something to make them stand out.

Google "KT logo" and look at what you will be competing with if someone is looking for you. Theres a lot of KT logos in the world.

EDIT: I just saw you spell your first name KENNE. That's original enough to stand out. Engraving a cue "by KENNE" would be something different at least.

I actually agree with this. I think "KENNE" would be a much better logo design. Plus, it would be more unique and distinctive. Good idea! :cool:

I actually never thought about just KENNE CUES, I do like that. Just clean block letters like "SCHICK" OR "RUNDE"

Now before all of you go nutz on me, I'm not in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER comparing myself to either of these Legendary Hall of Fame Cue Makers. I'm not even building my own cues yet, its just a dream as of now, but would like to have the Logo ready so I can have the pride of putting it on my first completed cue one day.

Thank you all for your opinions & suggestions. I believe I am going to go with KENNE CUES, my only concern tho is would you buy a cue with a first name across the bottom, or would it seem like it may have been made for a particular customer named Kenne??

And I cant go with Thomas Cues because there is already a Thomas Custom Cues out of El Paso, TX!!
 
How does going with no logo help to ID a cue, Im confused....am I just reading this wrong?[/QUOTE]


The style of logo helps to ID a cue by when it was made. Joss West changed his logos thru the years. Mottey has a few different logos. Schon changes their logo. Gina changed his logo. Some players and collectors want a cue that has a logo that shows the era when the cue was made instead of a date. It adds to the mystique.

Let me add that my initials of JAM gave me a chuckle one time. I was asked to do a job for the United States Marine Corps about the Iraq War. Imagine my shock when I realized my initials stood for an armed militia known as Jaish al-Mahdi (JAM). I was wondering what the Marine Corps would think if they knew their job was performed by JAM! :embarrassed2:

Jam, the women in the Marines when i was in were known as BAMs(big ass marines). I think thats where Emeril got his saying from when he use to have military cook offs years ago,he used that saying BAM & got called on it by women marines.
 
I dig the date , my imagination could not do anything with the rest , I saw back to the drawing board . Jim

And it costs less than #300! You will choose from 70-100 entries and the contest only lasts six days at most, unless you see one you want and end the contest early.

I was just about to reccomend this as well.
 
I didn't like your original logo at all. But I really like the Nike looking K that brokehustler came up with.
 
I think using classier fonts might be an option. Lower case works even for initials. Here is an example.
