GЯДИКФЯ Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 It's become a PMT store and it's much better. Better stock all round. They had some Music Man basses, basses from all the Fender ranges and I was surprised to see Clover basses there too. Checked out a Squier Classic Vibe P, an American Deluxe P with a subtley flamed maple fretboard and a Stingray through a tiny but pretty decent Line 6 amp. If you're in the area check it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrenochrome Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I went there last Saturday and they sorted out my return to Peavey very nicely considering they had nothing to do with the original sale. It's easy to get to down the A61, turn onto the M58 [inner ringroad], turnoff at the sign for the airport. At the roundabout take 3rd exit [signposted airport], then it's about 2nd or 3rd left past TGI Fridays and just next to Staples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeBrownBass Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Was there last week, was playing a sandberg in there for 2+ hours. The staff were great and brother bought a new guitar from there! -Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GЯДИКФЯ Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 ahh Sandberg, not Clover. They're basically the same IMO haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioBiro Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Woo, first post . I went in there today to see if they had any MIM Jazz basses in stock, and the bloke who handled everything was great. He seemed to be a fan of the new Fender Classic 70s Jazz Bass thingy, but apart from a cosmetically nicer neck I couldn't tell the difference between that and the standard MIM Jazz Bass I bought. For those who want to know where it is on foot (as I got a bit lost trying to find it), go straight out of the train station and turn left, and then turn left again past the bloke who sells the newspapers. Follow 'Wellington Street' I think it is for 5-10 minutes, and you'll go under the A58 along the way. When you spot the Staples store on the left, it's just next to that.

Big Bass Man Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I went there the other week and was again impressed with the bass guys who served me - nothing seemed to be too much trouble to them, they were very helpful Also have emailed them with an enquiry and they got straight back to me. I played on a load of basses and really liked the new Squier Jazz Classic Vibe in Olympic White, it was quality and only £249! What was the price for the 70's Classic Jazz bass you refer to?

timloudon Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I only just heard it'd changed, after hearing something a couple of months ago about Sound Control disappearing. I've heard it's a good bass selection now. I'm glad to hear that they've got some Clovers in there now, I've been drooling over the walnut Avenger 5 for a while. Do they have that one in stock? I'd really like to see what they're like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bass Man Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Popped to PMT last night and tried a Fender 70's Classic J bass - lovely! Will have to start saving now me thinks! They have a great selection of basses, I noticed 3 or 4 Spector Re-Bop 4 strings and the Sandbergs and a brilliant looking Musicman Sterling, but didn't have enough time to try them all out Staff were great as usual - worth checking it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
