I've thought about, but not followed through, with a tatoo of a ruler on my forearm as I'm constantly steeped in projects and hunting for a tape measurer. I was going to have 12 inches marked with the atomic Emmons fret markers instead of using numbers. 12" is just a bit too long and would go too far up my bicep so I've shelved the idea for now.

Re: tattoos
Same here wally. I could never figure out how I served in the USMC and somehow avoided one of these stamps. Probably because there were no parlors in the bush in Vietnam. lolWally Pfeifer wrote:

I want a pedal steel tattoo too
I want to get something that incorporates some Beatles lyrics (“All You Need Is Love”) and a pedal steel, in memory of my dad. I've seen some on line that incorporate a regular guitar with lyrics, but not a steel guitar. I wonder if I could make it look good. The steel is so boxy! I don’t know.
If I did a brand name, it would be a Sierra.
The other idea I have is a bright red heart with a steel guitar inside it.
Thoughts?
You guys in this thread have some nice tattoos.

I do believe Bob would have appreciated All You Need Is Steel.Shoshanah Marohn wrote:I want to get something that incorporates some Beatles lyrics (“All You Need Is Love”) and a pedal steel, in memory of my dad.

What I think would make a great tattoo is a view of two hands, one picking and one with a bar, playing on just strings, no other parts of the guitar. It represents pedal and non-pedal.

I'm glad you thought of your arm instead of some place else !James Mayer wrote:I've thought about, but not followed through, with a tatoo of a ruler on my forearm as I'm constantly steeped in projects and hunting for a tape measurer.
