Gary - for the logo I created any -light- colored shirt will do. Grey would be fine as long as it isn't too dark. If the guys want the name of a different drum company on the back, they can use the transfer paper method at home with whatever company name they desire.

Looking forward to seeing the results.

Yes I think light grey or light beige is a good choice.. I'd like to see what you do... I have Johns template that he was kind enough to email me. My plan is similar... and for the back

Ok, I've been doing some research... It turns out that transfer prints made using ordinary printer inks will fade badly after only a couple of washes. To make a long lasting T-shirt print you need transfer prints that use Plastisol inks, the same inks used by silk screen operations. Only the Plastisol ink transfers will hold up over time. I'm going to look into what's involved in getting transfers made using this special ink.
