Owen Posted March 23, 2020 Author Share Posted March 23, 2020 1 hour ago, Grangur said: It's ages ago now, but I did buy a Warwick 5 string from Owen. It was in an awful state. I loved it. It was great fun doing it up and getting it back to it's former glory. I also knew it was like that before we made the journey. He was completely honest. Mrs G and I went to Norwich and met Owen and the family. Really good guy to deal with. I have no hesitation about buying or selling with Owen again. I have been through VERY many basses but I have to admit that I am struggling to remember this one. I went to Norwich in 1984 so that they could refuse me a place at the University and I am 99% certain that I have never taken my family there. I am all for accepting praise wherever and however, but I am not convinced this was me. I could well be wrong though 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had seriously worn frets and a corroded bridge.... wrong person maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepbass5 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) Thought you moved for a moment then Owen, or do you just sell your dodgy gear from your holiday home in Norfolk. ☺️ Edited March 17, 2021 by deepbass5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I've just received a neat little headphone amp to go in the control cavity of a bass from Owen. The transaction was easy. We arranged by PM and I made a bank transfer. Owen packed it the same day (Friday) and I received it today (Monday) despite the pandemic, It was still in its envelope as sent to Owen. He got two so don't worry, I left him with one. Owen is a thoroughly nice chap and I don't hesitate to recommend you deal in confidence with him.

binky_bass Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Owen shrank a Warwick Streamer in the wash so kindly sent it to me at an equally shrunken price! Quick postage, good communications, what more can you ask for? Most good sir, most good indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Owen was having a clearout and sent me a generous package of spares for the price of postage. He even threw in a couple of extras. Once again, it was a pleasure to deal with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplebass Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Just received a package from Owen, absolutely hassle free (the postal services managed to set a new record, but that's another story), most trustworthy gent, deal with confidence. Thanks again, the strap is super soft and warm, not to mention that it's the best substitute for a pet ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walshy Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 So, I am now custodian of Owens rather splendiferous Bergantino IP310. What an absolute beast of a cab. Owen was tremendous throughout the deal, even telling me that I didn't really need it but that made me want it more 🤣 Brilliant comms, superbly well packed and delivered 24hrs after posted. Top banana fella. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
