That's a great idea, actually. :)
Stand by for about a thousand different opinions on what makes a good colour scheme! :D

3TSB and white or is it 3TSB and black?

what about having the logo in the shape of a famous bass, and it said "bassenchatter" across it ?

I think BC is in enough trouble with an certain evil capitalist guitar company as it is.

Personally i fancy a BC balaclava for semi-legal cold weather excursions.

The annoying thing is that we could get (say) 100 of these hats made up & embroidered with the Basschat logo for roughly £400, which is hardly the end of the world.

That would be 100 of the same design, same colour, one-size-fits-all, and stop asking if we can get an XXXL with a peak in purple just for you cos we can't, OK?

The devil, of course, is in the detail.[list]
[*]Postage & packing would damn near double the cost of each hat by the time it's delivered to the end user.
[*]Not all 100 would sell, so assumptions about unsold stock would have to be factored into the pricing.
[*]Someone would have to actually run the show, deal with the orders, fund the initial make-up, etc.
[/list]
From a purely business, bean-counting point of view, you'd be looking to sell these for £10 delivered.

At that price-point I know that I'd buy one, but I wonder how many others would actually dip their hands in their pockets for this ...

Yes, I rather had my eye on that one too.

Bizarrely, the description on the page calls that "yellow".

Erm ...

They can probably do, for that model, any of the 'fluo' colours (green, red/pink etc...)..?
Orange and black seem appropriate to me (I wonder why..?). :mellow:

If the hats are a go can we not all pay up front in to a kind of central kitty and if enough money goes in to order say 100 hats they have been paid for already no one is out of pocket blah blah blah :)

That's a possibility of course, but there's a lot else to think about first.

Even if we want to do this "at cost" so that nobody is out of pocket and nobody makes a profit, Basschat and its logo actually belong to someone (Ped & Kiwi, ectually) so it's their call anyway.

If Basschat wants to use this as a fund-raiser then the whole thing would need to be under their control, and it would be up to them how to deal with any risk element.

Given the semi-serious comments about other Basschat-branded stuff (fleeces, scarves, etc.) and the fact that BC t-shirts have existed for ages, there could also be a case made for creating a Basschat on-line shop.

Suddenly we're getting into much choppier water ...
