I was going for the inlay since the background is wood. I thought it would be an interesting idea. I can take the logo you provided and use it to bump map the quilt or background wood. If you would like to get the DB into it a good straight on picture of the unstrung fingerboard and headstock, and another with it strung would be nice. I was trying to focus more on the electric since I'm assuming that's the larger part of your business.

Another interesting idea would be to use a picture of a block of the pearl inlay material to map the writing. It would provide much better contrast. Like I said I made those in about 15 minutes(between rocking my 1yo daughter to sleep and crawling into bed). I'll add some more sparkle when I get more time to work on them.
