TheGreek Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 Anybody done any business with this company? https://classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/basses-for-sale/ Quote
MGB Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 I'm on the verge of maybe buying a bass there. Contact ,by phone and by mail, so far has been very pleasant. Quote
Hutton Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 I have done quite a lot of business with classic and cool. Mark is a true gent and very easy to deal with. Prices are more than you would expect to pay here which is understandable as Mark is running a business. Trade deals can be good depending on what you are trading. All in all it is well worth contacting Mark and having a chat with him. Classic and Cool is also the home of Limelight basses. 1 Quote
bazzbass Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 yeah great, thanks. Just what we need, more GAS for even cooler and more expensive basses we don't need hehe. Quote
Steve Browning Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 I have dealt with Mark (visiting his place a couple of times to collect instruments). I can only endorse the praise he is receiving already. A very fine gent and a pleasure to deal with. Quote
spongebob Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Bought and sold a couple of times with Mark. Really nice guy, deal with complete confidence! 😀 Quote
Cuzzie Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 I can vouch for Mark as someone to deal with. Great phone and email comms and a nice guy when you meet in person. Quote
pbasspecial Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Mark is a top fella. Have confidence in your dealings with him. Quote
discreet Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Long-standing customer here. I've bought from and traded with Classic & Cool and have commissioned at least two stunning Limelight basses from Mark. He's absolutely above board and very easy to deal with and his website a continual source of GAS... so one to avoid if you're trying to keep your credit card in your pocket! Edit: Given myself Limelight GAS, now. Doh! Edited October 28, 2018 by discreet 1 Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 I've bought, sold and traded with Mark many times, all great experiences. I sold Mark a bass a couple of years ago which unfortunately had a small lacquer crack on the neck. Nothing major but it wasn't something he wanted to sell on. He sent the bass back to me at his own expense and in the hard case I'd sold to him with a different bass. He's a good chap. Quote
mrtcat Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 I'll add myself to the, already sizeable, list of folk that have had really positive dealings with Mark. My Limelight P is my favourite bass of all and Mark is a really top chap to deal with. Quote
knicknack Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Can only echo the above... I pop in there most weeks and his setups are stunning! Quote
scalpy Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Where’s he based please? I can only find ‘South West’ after a quick google. Quote

Happy Jack Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Well that rules out a spot of window-shopping then ... Quote
skidder652003 Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Again I can vouch for Mark (he's also a mate), his selection of axes are amazing and he is a top top bloke, incredibly fair and will give you a great price for a part ex if he thinks he can move it on. Quote
ead Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 ~Yup, Mark is a top bloke and great to deal with. Quote
bassfan Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 I’ve sold to Mark and had lots of correspondence over the past 6 months. From my experience I can only echo what the guys have already said. Mark at C&C is a great guy to deal with. 👍🏻 Quote
