Maybe we will actually see the UBXA actually be called an OBERHEIM OBXa.

Anyone can register a trademark, but there are several other entities--including Gibson, which purchased Oberheim Electronics as it went bankrupt--that also registered Oberheim. It would take some balls, and I bet there'd be a fight over it.

Why not "Uberheim" instead?  It seems like an obvious alteration.

It might actually work in Behringer's favor that Gibson has many other problems right now. Probably the least of their concerns is to keep the Oberheim trademark. They might even be advised to get rid of everything non-guitar-related.

Yeah Gibson can try and sue with their $500 Million debt.

Right. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

OBehreimger if you overthink about it.
