obbm

obbm - shortened from OldBlueBassMan. At the time I registered I was playing for a band called Old Blue Moses. Started playing bass in 1961 at age of 15 Still going strong in 2007 Retired from the day job and now make cables for discerning musicians Full story [url="http://www.myspace.com/obbm"]here[/url] I thought I'd found the ultimate set-up until I joined Bassworld and the Gas got me.

[quote name='chardbass' post='612' date='May 17 2007, 06:04 PM']I'm picking up Alan's CAR JO5 tomorrow- I think it used to be yours? Anyway, that has a mint green guard I believe but I'm considering white pearloid or clear perspex on that. Whenever I see white on red I'm reminded of Hank Marvin *shudder*[/quote] Ah so that's where it's gone. Nothing wrong with Hank. The Shads were my era.

Over the past 18 months a number of people have posted some really nice comments in my feedback thread. It will be such a shame to lose these. I have retrieved these from BT and would like to put them into a consolidated comment post unless anyone has any objections, or indeed wants to post again.

[quote name='Merton' post='436' date='May 17 2007, 03:15 PM']So, to catch up from where we left off... OBBM is checking out ACM and will keep us in the loop - cheers Dave! I'm checking the Harlequin in Redhill as another option We had about 40-odd people showing interest I think - post here to remind us who you are and keep the ideas coming in!![/quote] Thanks for posting this Martin. This is still CONCEPT, NOT REALITY NO VENUE HAS BEEN SET NO DATE HAS BEEN SET DO NOT keep posting about it being at ACM, because it isn't. By all means talk about what sort of event you'd like.

but I find the plain white scratch plate on my Lakland Duck Dunn rather bland and uninspiring. It needs enhancing. With what should I replace it? Mirror? Black? Gold anodised? Help me out here.

Here we go again. Well done chaps. BTW I like the skin.
