ODI Toadstools

bruggers100:
They are the ones.

The reason for asking is, as I remember back in the day, you used to get copies of mushrooms which were a harder compound rubber and shiney to look at.  The original mushrooms were a very soft rubber compound and dull in comparison.

I wasn't sure whether or not the ones from Alan's were indeed ODI because there were  no markings to confirm on the packaging.

Happy to be corrected (that was the reason for posting) and apologies to Alan's for doubting but I am a little disappointed that the rubber compound is no where near the same.

I reckon you've got the ODI ones but to be fair even today's A'ME Grips feel different.  I think something gets lot in the translation of H&S and the environmental impacts of manufacturing so compounds are very different from BITD :(.  The dual colour Mushrooms come a lot still though so keep your eye out on the For Sale section or eBay and I'm sure a pair of decent ones will come up soon  :daumenhoch:.

Jon The Bassist:
The product description does say that they're made from PVC which is plastic not rubber.
