Moos3h Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hi folks I felt the need to post something on here to say how incredibly impressed I am with Bassgear (the shop). Two nights ago I dropped them a mail regarding a PX, I got a detailed valuation straight back, together with the history of a couple of basses I had my eye on. I said I was hoping to be in the area on business but may not make it before they closed, no problem, they agreed to stay open. I pulled into the car park yesterday at 5pm and both the guys working said hi, asked me how the journey was, told me to try anything I liked and made me a cup of tea. Over an hour later, I decided on my trade and we agreed a deal which actually meant I paid £0 and left with what I feel was absolutely the bass for me (an upgraded MIM Jazz). Couldn't be happier with it and the perfect backup for my other Jazz. So I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the guys at Bassgear - truly world class customer service and a great deal! I'm a happy camper and they will be my go-to guys for bits and pieces in the future. www.bassgear.co.uk - recommended, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Great news! I have yet to buy from them but I will be using them soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno1981 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Was the the MIM with the new pickups in it? That was a very decent bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos3h Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 Yeah, that's the one - it's a lovely bass. I've actually just popped a set of awesome pickups I had lying around into it to see what difference they made. You can tell it's a quality bass - it's indistinguishable from the USA model in terms of build, the neck is awesome and having a Badass is a bonus!

[/quote] I think it was actually a different MM. This one had Barts in it. Both are really nice. When you get a good MM it often only needs a simple pickup upgrade to make a world of difference It's always great to get feedback from people! We really enjoy meeting new bass players and having a good natter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos3h Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 Nope, that was the one - the Barts were great but I've popped in my pickups so it sounds closer to my 'number one'. Love it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
