Bigwan Posted May 2, 2018 Posted May 2, 2018 Just bought an Ibanez SRC6 from Frank. Very pleased with it and the whole transaction. Communication was excellent throughout and Frank's packaging was beyond bombproof! Wouldn't hesitate to deal with Frank again. 1 Quote
Mickeyboro Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 The man is an absolute gent - even offered a money back guarantee on my purchase. Would not hesitate to deal with him again... 1 Quote
casapete Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 Bought a Taylor mini bass from Frank. He very kindly kept it for a month until we could meet up in Southend to do the deal, which was very much appreciated as it saved risking a courier. Absolute top fella, went out of his way to ensure I was happy with my purchase. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Cheers Frank! 1 Quote
Dad3353 Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 I've just taken delivery of a Roland acoustic amp (AC60...), shipped promptly to France, impeccably packed and in pristine condition. All at a more than reasonable cost, so to say that I'm pleased would be an understatement. Excellent communication, including friendly banter; things couldn't have been better. Thanks again, then, Frank. It's been a real pleasure. I hereby declare this fellow to be, in my opinion and experience, a Thoroughly Good Egg. 1 Quote
MrTea Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 What these guys said! ^^^ Frank is an utter pleasure to deal with and his packaging skills are top notch. Do not hesitate to deal with him. 1 Quote
clivem Posted December 29, 2018 Posted December 29, 2018 Bought an Ibby SR500 from Frank. Great communication, easy transaction, he's a no-nonsense pleasure to deal with! Thanks, Frank. 1 Quote
Pea Turgh Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Just bought a couple of really nice microphones from Frank at the SW bass bash. Great to meet you in person, Frank! I recorded some (dodgy) Spanish guitar with them last night - they sound ace! Thank you! 1 Quote
AndyTravis Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Just a sound guy, offered to pick a bass up for me, and turned up, no stress. wish we’d had time for a brew and more chat. Lovely bloke. one of the many sound people who make this page worth being on. 1 Quote
Lee-Man Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 Brought a Sire from Frank. Went out of his way to bring it up to me. The bass is awesome. Lovely dude, one of the good guys. 1 Quote

Osiris Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Met with Frank this morning for a Basschat dodgy car park deal, where he passed on a pedal board he was giving away. I was expecting something old and battered but it was new, as in still wrapped up new. Once I realised my folly I offered to pay for the board, but the payment was commuted to a coffee and an attempt to put the world to rights at a later date. Frank is a true Basschat legend, deal in confidence. 2 Quote
Gareth Hughes Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Excellent dealing all round. Frank was very patient with my PayPal headaches, and does the best packing you'll ever see. I'm tempted to believe the bubble wrap INSIDE the outer box was heat-shrunk around the inner box. Too damn good. 1 Quote
Larry_M Posted October 20, 2019 Posted October 20, 2019 Bought some leads from Frank and it was all easy and a pleasure. The leads were in tip-top condition, superbly packaged, and he dispatched them instantly (above and beyond the call!) Can't recommend him highly enough. 1 Quote
TheGreek Posted November 19, 2019 Posted November 19, 2019 Just to reiterate what others have said.... Frank is a lovely fella..came to my home and we chatted at length about all things bass, what we've owned and what we would like to own (Yes, Jezza, we're talking about your little creations) and then he did the dirty deed.. He just bought my ACG Harlot SC - I'm having sellers remorse - I may have to chase him up the road!! Another asset to the BC community. 1 Quote
Clarky Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Frank just added to his ACG arsenal by buying my Recurve in an always-friendly and perfectly executed deal. As said above, Frank is an asset to the BC community 🙂 2 Quote
Ashwood1985 Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Just bought a Godin A4 from Frank. A pleasure to meet and deal with. There was an issue with noise on one of the jack outputs and Frank jumped in the motor, bombed down to our local luthier, got it sorted and returned to me with it all sorted and told me if it goes again he will sort it out. Cannot recommend dealing with Frank highly enough! As honest, decent BCer as you’ll find 👍🏼 2 Quote
stewblack Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Every now and then a Basschatter goes above and beyond. Not easy to do in a market place dominated by excellent people, both buyers and sellers. Frank not only prices his sales incredibly reasonably, but offers to deliver to a half way point far from his Southend home. I can't tell you exactly how he went so far beyond the norm for me in this particular transaction. You will have to take my word for it. I will say this, those who I've found to be the most trusting in life are so often the same people who are the most deserving of our trust. You can trust and rely on Frank. I owe you one mate. 1 1 Quote
ntto Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Some feedback from me on a recent transaction.....Frank was a superstar, lots of patience with me as logistics turned out to be harder than it should (living in NI). Frank went out of his way to make it as painless as possible and it went like a dream. A pleasure to deal with. Comms was great, the financial bit was nice and easy and secure and would definitely recommend as a buyer / seller. 1 Quote
Osiris Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Had my second meet up and car park dodgy deal with Frank this afternoon and it was as painless and easy as the first. This time I took a case off Frank's hands, we'd been chatting privately and I'd mentioned I was on the lookout for a semi rigid case, to which he said he'd got one he was looking to move on which he very kindly gave me. Not only that, he steadfastly refused any payment whatsoever and wouldn't even let me cover his petrol for the 3 hour round trip. What can you say to that? Frank is a man of his word and a Basschat legend to whom I now owe not only a coffee but a cheese sandwich too. I look forward to honouring my side of the bargain as well as announcing the birth of our first child. 1 1 1 Quote

binky_bass Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Frank was kind enough to drop off a strap to my doorstep free of charge! Can't ask for more than that! Another credit to Basschat, cheers good sir! 1 Quote
Sharkfinger Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Not only did he provide me with free stuff (good quality at that), he also dropped it off in person. Doesn't get much better than that. 1 Quote
Adee Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 Deal with Frank with absolute confidence, great communication and beyond generous. Do not hesitate to deal with him be it in person or postage. He is as others have confirmed, a Basschat legend of the highest degree \m/ 1 Quote
