SNOWY SHAW's 'Beloved' GIBSON Bass Stolen

May 22, 2009

Swedish multi-instrumentalist Snowy Shaw (THERION, DREAM EVIL, KING DIAMOND, MERCYFUL FATE, MEMENTO MORI, NOTRE DAME) has issued the following update:

"I recently had my old favorite Gibson bass [see photo below] stolen out of our touring van that was parked in Gothenburg city [Sweden] during a few unattended hours.

"Of course, I've already spread the word to all local music stores and notified all the swedish eBay equavalents etc.

"But in the two weeks that have now passed I've heard nothing and I have begun to lose hope of ever recovering my beloved bass, so the last straw would be to go public and spread the word here in a last attempt.

"It's a Gibson EB model. Uncertain of the year but somewhere between 1967-1974.

"Note: the grim reaper's scythe wasn't attached at the point of the theft.

"I can offer a pretty substantial finders fee to the one who can bring my bass back to me in a good condition.

"So please don't hesitate to contact me with a closer description if you suspect you've found the right one."

Snowy Shaw recently joined forces with Anders Fastader (GREAT KING RAT, TITANIC TRUTH, SOUTHFORK) to launch a concept/design company called TrailerMade Production.

Shaw and Fastader explain the idea behind their latest venture: "Our aim is to help bands/artist to pinpoint and refine how they want to present themselves when it comes to their artistic and graphic profile. Today when record sales drop and everybody's got a website and a t-shirt to sell, it's getting more and more crucial to stand out as an artist and realize how to best package your product.

"Although the company is fresh out of the starting blocks we've already landed some high-profile and interesting projects such as THE POODLES' upcoming releases, AGGRESSIVE CHILL and OPERA DIABOLICUS, and more is to be official in a near future.

"So if you ever need some input or a helping hand in profiling your band — don't shy out and be a stranger."
