GreeneKing Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) Hiya all. I've been around Basschat and it's precursors for quite a while, more recently as Greeneking and before that as Wraithwrider (yes there's a reason for the name change and it's nothing sinister) and although I've never seen the need for feedback before now I do appreciate that it has a place in offering some reassurance to others who may be fuelling or being fuelled by GAS. So if you have any feedback (bass dealing related only please ) I'd ask that you plonk it down here. Cheers Peter Edited March 24, 2009 by GreeneKing Quote
Gazm Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I bought a Yamaha TRB-6II and a Warwick 5 String Fretless from Peter in the summer of 2006 (can't remember the exact date). He answered my questions quickly and did me a fine deal on the two basses. They both arrived within a day or two and were well packaged and exactly as described. Would I deal with him again? Absolutely!!! Pete. Quote
STU-SBL Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 And I originally sold him the aforementioned TRB 6II at the start of 06. Great guy to deal with and really into his basses Stu Quote
niceguyhomer Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Peter is a rare thing - an absolute gentleman and a real pleasure to business with. I can't imagine there being a more honest, decent man on the planet. We've swapped a few things now but unfortunately I met him after his divorce so didn't get the opportunity to swap partners Quote
Sercet Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Peter bought a Rickenbacker from me. I like him. Quote
birdy Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Peter and I did an effortless deal back in April 2006 when I took a Sadowsky Metro off his hands for a stingray, cab and combo if I remember correctly. Plain Sailing and a top bloke! Steve Quote
silverfoxnik Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 As Homer said, Peter is an absolute gentleman. A pleasure to deal with - honest and sincere and looks after his equipment really well. So if you buy from him, you know that what you get will be top notch! Not only that, Peter has great taste in basses, is very knowledgeable on all sorts of stuff that gets discussed here on the forum and is someone who brings real thought and a sense of conscience to the debate.. Good sense of humour too! Quote
Geddys nose Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I gave him a pile of green/brown paper and he gave me a stunning bass,A true gent Quote
Linus27 Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 (edited) I also agree that Peter is an absolute gentleman. Very helpful, very genuine and very honest. I bought a Bass Collection from him for my wife and the bass is stunning. It is exactly as described. It play beautiful, is in mint condition, setup beautifully and is a true gem. Mt wife, Rebecca who is just starting out on the bass loves this Bass Collection and has not put it down. I thank you very much Peter for such a wonderful bass, a superb service and all the help. A true star you are. Michael Edited January 26, 2008 by Linus27 Quote
Machines Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 He gave me a lift to last years Bash, does that count ? Quote
Bassassin Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Peter recently purchased a Hipshot Rick bridge from me - a most agreeable transaction & a top feller with great taste in basses. Jon. Quote

warwickhunt Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Pete's a top bloke to deal with, no worries! Excellent communication and before you know it we're meeting up and swapping stories (as well as cash for a EB Sterling). Have no fears about any deal; Pete's as straight as they come. Quote
queenofthedepths Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 I bought a combo from Peter - it arrived quickly, no hassle etc etc - lovely guy to deal with! Quote
warwickhunt Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Top bloke! Made a decision to buy a bass from me; promptly organised to get to my place with cash in hand... You can't ask for more than that. Many thanks again Peter Quote
bellyfunk Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Just taken delivery of a lovely Deluxe Jazz from Peter. Well packaged and exactly as described. We did all our communication via email but reply's were quick,helpful and patient even when Barclays PINsentry reared it's ugly head and delayed my payment for a few days. Genuine chap, painless transaction, highly recommended. Many thanks Peter, although I think my neighbours would probably string you up after tonight if they could find you Gary Quote
agroupuk Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 (edited) I just bought a shiny black gloss Epiphone Thunderbird from Peter. Nice easy transaction, he even met me halfway. The bass was mint just as he described. Nice bloke (now he needs to sell me a really cheap combo and I will be happy lol) I did get stopped by the police on the train station platform as they were looking for a 'man carrying a guitar' ...................... but I dont think I can blame Peter for that hehehe Top bloke!

GreeneKing Posted October 25, 2008 Author Posted October 25, 2008 That's the last time I'll use the old 'do a post office and quickly sell the telltale guitar' ruse then Glad you're pleased Peter Quote

Paulo Silva Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I just traded basses plus money with Peter and the basses arrived safe in my country. both hardcases where well aconditioned and the UPS service was great. Peter is a great guy and I'm really looking forward to do business again with him! I just hope that in the next time the bank services in my country work a little faster and better. Quote

EssentialTension Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Easy and smooth dealing with Peter. Besides which he is able to quote Jack Casady so that must be good. Quote
