hhgregg FineLines Logo - 2 fonts needed for ID please

debsterbug

This is a rough sample of hhgregg's Fine Lines store logo. I'm trying to recreate it as a vector type logo but I don't know what fonts are being used. The font for hhgregg has a unique g letter but I have been unable to find what font it is. The font for Fine Lines is a different font, I think, that I hope someone can id. The web address is a third font but I don't need that font id'd. Just the Fine Lines and hhgregg.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for any help you all can offer.

Whatever FINE LINES is, it's manually extended.

As far as hhgregg is concerned, it could be a customization based on this...

Thank you VERY much. I appreciate your help and the info on Fine Lines.

Could be DIN manually extended (as suggested by Nick).

Thanks for the info Ryuk. In looking at DIN, all the letters are the same height. In my sample, it looks like the F and L are a bit taller than the others letters. So I'm not sure DIN is it.

Debster, the F and L are larger because someone designated them a larger point size. Look at the different between the stems (uprights) in the L and the I: the former is wider than the latter.

Those crafty graphic designers will hornswoggle you every time, if you let ‘em…

Ah....Ok. Now I see it said this blind lady. I'm glad you weren't hornswoggle this time. I have to say I've never heard the term hornswoggle before. I'm amazed at the talents of typographers. I love type but I don't understand it all. I appreciate all the help from both you and Ryuk.
