Dennis and I arranged a trade, his De Gier 6 string for my W&T 5 string, the only thing making the trade difficult was I'm in the UK and he's in Croatia!
So I did the logical thing and flew over to Croatia for the weekend to do a bass trade. Dennis met us (me and my other half) at the airport and drove us to our hotel, we arranged to do the trade in the morning. Dennis then picked us up from the hotel and drove us to his house, we played bass, chatted, did the trade and everyone was happy!
Dennis's hospitality didn't end at doing all the driving, he took us out in the Capital for a night of drinking and pretty much refused to let me pay for any drinks! 'I sold and Fbass today!!' He would say every time I tried getting my wallet out, (he sold an Fbass earlier that day).
Overall an excellent trade was had by all, followed by a damn good weekend and it's always good to make a new friend along the way!
If you're going to deal with Dennis, then you're going to have a smooth and easy transaction. Can't fault him at all.
