I just got an e-mail back from EHX and apparently GraphicFuzz heard right...
"The logo is commonly referred to as a Ram's Head. The logo is actually a painting that was done by an artist friend of Mike Matthews in the 60's. Mike thought it would make an interesting logo for the Electro-Harmonix products."
The exact words out of the mail.
I left the rest of the email out, since it's all about how I'm such a great musician, and that they're so proud that I play with their pedals. Also a business proposal that I have to do a commercial for them, and in exchange I get every EHX pedal available for free.
I just left that part out. I'd like to stay modest.
Nice! Thanks for the response, and your obvious modesty . That sounds like a cool offer, that I would definitely go for. How do you get EHX to ask you to do commercials for them?
