[SML] Gobos

[Ford Sellers]

Hi Ross,
Goboman is great, if you don't need specific Rosco, Gam, or Apollo patterns.  If you do want more "standard" patterns, most theatrical suppliers (BMI Supply, MainStage, etc.), or our own Scott Parker can help you out.

Typically, you're looking at about $15-$16 ea for stock steel gobos.

Thanks,
-Ford

I'll second goboman.com for custom gobos and customer service! At a previous employer we supplied production for A BUNCH of weddings and other events, and they were great at getting custom gobos knocked out fast for those.

Cheers, Gordon

All the "usual suspects" that resell Rosco/GAM and Apollo are just
fine and dandy, but I'm a big fan of Goboman.com - unless things have
changed in recent years, it's a small company (just a couple of
people? Steve and Rebel) - and the steel gobos are a bit thicker than
the Rosco/GAM ones.  Really like the longevity of their gobos, and
their custom prices are great, if it's not one of their stock images.
