discreet Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Lots of love on BassChat for our own Dave (obbm) and his truly excellent high-quality instrument and speaker cables (among other things). I notice (rather belatedly) that his website 'basic-bits' has now become 'rock-wire': [url="http://www.rock-wire.uk.com/"]http://www.rock-wire.uk.com/[/url] Is this a 'Snickers' and 'Marathon' moment, Dave? Or possibly 'Sri Lanka' and 'Ceylon'? Or even 'Iceland' and 'Bejams'..? *babbles incoherently* Anyway I thought I'd give it a plug, I'm always up for promoting quality products at the right price! And if you happen to be in the market for some new cables, I (and lots of others on here) can certainly recommend obbm with no hesitation. Top quality, great value and brilliant service and comms. No-brainer! (Can I have that tenner now please, Dave?) Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh, that takes me back. And makes me extremely worried for myself, if I can get nostalgic about a frozen food shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year I decided that at some point in the future I might want to fully retire and sell the business so I needed to separate the company name from my own name and Rock-Wire seemed more appropriate. It's a good name on which to build a brand. I run both bassic-bits.co.uk and rock-wire.uk.com web sites concurrently with exactly the same information and prices. Bassic-bits will stay as the Ebay trading name but eventually, all cables will carry the Rock-Wire brand name however I suppose that here they will always be known as obbm's cables.

gary mac Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Sorry Dave but we, the collective, will NOT allow you to retire. You will have to come up with a much more sensible plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obbm Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 [quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1331812019' post='1579196'] Cool. Time to jump on the curly lead bandwagon obbm [/quote] I looked into the possibility about 3 or 4 years ago. Firstly they have to be one standard fixed length as the ends need to be straight for the connectors and secondly I would have to invest in a huge quantity in order to get a sensible buying price that it wasn't financially viable for me. .

Musicman20 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I suddenly thought this said 'obbm's basic-bits is no'... when you see the topic to the right from the main screen. I thought, PLEASE DON'T SAY 'NO MORE'. Thankfully not. Great cables, keep it up OBBM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
