Supernaut Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 Not one to do this usually but I purchased a Bacchus last week from Bass Bros and the service I received was top notch. The process from start to finish was first class and Will even got in touch with me to ask what strings I would like when restringing and doing a set-up. I will definitely be using these guys again in the future. https://bassbros.co.uk 8 Quote
alant Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 I had an email exchange with them a couple of months back about a bass they were advertising. I didn't buy it in the end but was very impressed with their responses to me. Emailed me back at 11pm! Would certainly contact them again if I see something suitable. Quote
Old Horse Murphy Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 I bought a Fretless Jazz from them earlier this year and found the whole experience excellent. I'd definitely buy from them again. Quote
thodrik Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Good to hear the positive reviews. I have seen a few nice basses they have advertised on Reverb and Ebay. Good to know that they are a good outfit. Quote

Bunion Posted December 21, 2021 Posted December 21, 2021 Purchased a bass off Will today at Bass Bros, the service was fantastic. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy there again, a real gent. Quote
wateroftyne Posted December 21, 2021 Posted December 21, 2021 FWIW I bought a bass off them a while ago, and they were spot-on. 1 Quote
Machines Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 +1 from me. Good comms and friendly chat. You will find their stuff on eBay and Reverb marked up significantly, I believe this is to direct people to their main website for the 'real price' to avoid the preposterous fees on those platforms.

fleabag Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 Not heard of them, but i had superb service from Wunjo, who could not have been more helpful. I would always buy from them again, avoiding at least one atrocious bass seller from the past Quote

skidder652003 Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 this looks a real bargain https://bassbros.co.uk/product/cort-gb34/ Quote

I've noticed cheaper instrument don't sell as quickly there as the expensive ones. I sold 2 with them under £200, both were going for that or more on eBay and it took about 6 weeks. Quote
Pow_22 Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 Shouldnt have clicked that link. That ashdown drophead combo is now tingling my wallet! Quote
soulstar89 Posted December 26, 2021 Posted December 26, 2021 i second the customer service. they had a fender 89 pb-62 MIJ reissue which i was interested in. Extremely helpful. sadly my indecisiveness lost me the bass. I have now bookmarked the site so when they get a 80's pb-62 with us pick up and electronics ill purchase. Quote
Pow_22 Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 Heading over tomorrow to complete a trade. I watch so many bass bits over so many sites i completely got my locations mixed up. Thought it was in Leeds which is probably a 45min drive, turns out its Warwick which is about 2hrs 30 Oh well, new toy incoming. Comms have been excellent so far Quote
Thump Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 I've bookmarked the site myself now too, hadn't heard of them until now. Thank you, I'm always keeping an eye out for a bargain. Apologies, on phone and can't get rid of this damn tick now... ☑️ Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 I bought something extremely special beginning with A from them a few weeks ago (NBD thread imminent). Will's a great bloke to deal with, very fair, friendly and up front, and he gave me a great part-ex offer on my Rickenbacker. They're opening a shop soon, and if this level of service carries on I reckon Bass Direct could have some real competition. 1 Quote

ead Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 I've found them to be very good. Some of my basses were sold through Bass Bros and a few more are f/s. More will follow for sure. 1 Quote
