Asked to speak with Jim Cooper.
It seems Jim passed away on January 3rd, 2026.
Jim hired me to work at Oberheim in Santa Monica and we have been friends for close to 50 years.
The business is being liquidated by end of March and might be a good time to see what is up for sale.
Sorry if this is the wrong group to address this kind of info, but Jim was a great guys to us DIY folks.
Best regards,
Terry Shultz
