Pearl Jam Guitars
While serving as a Senior Designer at Reid Signs in Seattle, I had the esteemed opportunity to engage in several compelling projects in collaboration with Gibson guitars.
Gibson contacted us to create guitar graphics for a giveaway promotion, featuring the nine individual images off the cover of Pearl Jam's "Backspacer" album.
I had the honor, privilege and creative freedom to come up with interesting ways to display the album artwork on Gibson Les Paul Jr. guitars.
Pearl Jam's "Backspacer" Album
These are the nine images I had to work with. "Backspacer" is actually the name of Eddie Vedder's (Pearl Jam frontman) per turtle.

I was told this very guitar was given to Eddie Vedder personally.
Yes, I designed it so the knob would be there. ;-)
