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

Oh.... am I mistaken?
I'm thinking of a bubinga 5 string Warwick. It had seriously worn frets and a corroded bridge.... wrong person maybe?

Nope, that was not me

LOL... you're right! It was someone else... It's official. I've lost it.

Thought you moved for a moment then Owen, or do you just sell your dodgy gear from your holiday home in Norfolk. ☺️

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.

Just received what looks like a brand spanking new TC Electronic Sub n Up pedal from Owen.

Great guy and fab to do business with

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!

[SpondonBassed]

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.

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!

[walshy]

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.

Owen is a 100% absolute gentleman to deal with

As others have said, Owen is a pleasure to do business with.

Bought a nice price Hipshot xtender from Owen, all good of course, kept me in the loop on the day he couldn't get to the post office and sent it 1st class, many thanks

[deepbass5]

I Just purchased a Bravewood - 64 Sonic blue fretless jazz from Owen.

with his usual attention to making the process smooth and painless, good communication and well packaged.

 

It arrived covered in scratches and dents and looked like it was found in a canel

 

Just as I had hoped,  lovely jubbly 😍

[Lee-Man]

Brought a bass last night from Owen. Super smooth and easy purchase. 

[silverfoxnik]

Just received a Mono strap from @Owenwhich arrived in record time and is exactly as described.

 

Thanks Owen - it's absolutely perfect for this small humanoid! 😁

 

And just to say (as this is your Feedback thread after all) I can't recommend Owen to the Basschat community highly enough, so deal with him in absolute confidence... 👍

 

All the best,

Another superb transaction with Owen - everything exactly as described - the case arrived quickly, well-packed and in very good condition (actually better than I'd expected).  Owen's reputation for probity and honesty is well-established - a star in our firmament!

Bought a couple of Italia straps from Owen and love them… start of an expensive habit I suspect.
