Oh man, this confirmed what I feared most true. You guys are WAY funnier than I am... These are all great, there isn't a bad entry here!!!

So voting is live for the next 24 hours. I'll buy the winner a board of their choice from Bean's shop. (I just realized I should have probably asked Brian if it was cool to do this here, sorry)

So many good entries, thank you all for playing along. I hope you guys are enjoying the strip. This little project has been helpful for me dealing with the stress of all this uncertainty.

Thanks, Matthew!  And thanks to everyone who voted!  That was a fun distraction from the stress and chaos, and a very generous prize as well.  I'll take a look at the shop page and send you a PM later.

Funny thing is, true story, was that I had an online dating.... ?incident? ?stalker? where this lady was way too interested in me and had a daughter who was starting to play guitar.  Anyway, in the course of things she messaged me saying that she thought the name of the headstock tuner - "Snark" - was pretty funny.

I told her to wait until the kid got into electric guitars and pedals so she could be exposed to a Swollen Pickle and a Big Muff...
