William James Easton Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Well i am taking the plunge/jumping on the band wagon by purchasing a Stagg EUB in either oct/nov. Can any of you lovely lovely people recomend the best place to purchase one from over the inter web? or in a short car journey from north yorks? I've seen the price range from 280-380. and the cheaper places (zings?) seem to be all out of stock (duh). also if anybody knows of a double bass/eub teacher in the harogate region then please let me know. warm regards.

Maxcat Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Hi Rusty. I cant help with the local stuff but welcome to the brotherhood of the Stagg. I got mine from Zings back in May. Ive got to say that they were a bit of a drama to deal with and I had to send the first one back as it had obviously been damaged by being sent out to someone else. Good luck with finding a dealer tho. They seem to be as rare as rocking horse sh*t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7string Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I'm definately tempted by one of these as well! Comments about Zings duly noted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
