Thanks for the names

The contest to gather name suggestions for our newest line of electric bowed instruments finished at the end of the day yesterday, June 15th.  We received over a thousand suggestions from 414 people.  We’ll announce the winner here soon, and hope to begin producing the instruments later this summer.  Thanks again to all who participated.

    The new NS WAV & the earlier CR series are synergised together as the new CRAV!. Its the bass I’ve always craved. 🙂

    Pick me too!!! 🙂

    I’m anxiously waiting for the announcement, just to find out what was decided on.

    Hmm. Should I buy the WAV4 now or wait for the new design?

    Ned and the marketing team may have already selected a group of choices and I believe those choices need to be checked for copyright/trademarks and that can take time.

    I once submitted a TM and logo for my company and it took 6-weeks just to complete the search. Then, if the name/acronym already exists then it has to be proven not to compete in the same market and the rules for that are rather draconian.

    Thanks for the putting up the contest in the first place. It was fun. I think I submitted over 40 recommendations. LOL

    Hi Ned, How much would the new bass cost? & what is the difference between it the & WAV4? I’m thinking of getting the wav4 but should I wait for the new bass instead as I can’t afford to get both. :).
