Back to Bassics Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Are we remembering the same shop? Wapping High Street? The staff were all stuck-up, no-nothing w***ers ... I remember very well a conversation soon after they opened. It was, "Can I buy a couple of Gibson heavy plectrums?" "Nah, sorry mate, we only deal with pros. We only sell in hundreds ..." I did love it though, the tossers mugged away loads of stuff they thought was "sh*t". I bought, very cheaply, an Ampeg AEB-1, an early '80s Gibson Flying V bass, a Triumph and several other collectable basses for giveaway prices. I recently returned to London and found "The Bass Centre" on Denmark Street. The staff ... I met four or five of them over a couple of days ... were great. Helpful and friendly. Nothing at all like the old place on Wapping High Street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
