Great Sales Service!

I just bought my third bass from Bass Central. Grasshopper spent time with me on the phone providing honest and knowledgable information. For my needs, I ended up choosing an American Standard Precision 5. They had one that only weighed 8 lbs and I wanted that particular instrument due to ABS (Aging Back Syndrome). The bass arrived on time, packed perfectly, and in perfect condition. It is always risky to buy without first seeing the instrument, but this bass is as perfect as Fender can make them and I'm very happy.

Thanks Grasshopper and Bass Central!

I agree 100%. I was a bit hesitant in making a significant instrument purchase from an out-of-state vendor. Glad that I decided to go through Bass Central. Top-notch service... Love my new Music Man Stingray 5 stealth! Thanks to David and he rest of he bass central crew for the smooth transaction!

Just received my new Musicman Stingray Classic. Beautiful, immaculate and sounds fab. Dealt with Dave. FABULOUS service. Dave answered my (numerous) questions with knowledge and patience and gave me a fab deal.

I can't fault these guys.

Very, very good purchasing experience. Will buy from there again - no hesitation. Thanks Dave and BC!

Just ordered my 4th bass from Bass Central, a Music Man Bongo 4H. Once again Beaver gave me a great deal and took great care of me. Bass Central is the only place I will go to by my basses from. They simply treat my extremely well.

Hmm, that was not my experience. Had what I thought were some simple questions about Lakland bass that I was looking to buy. Guess I got them on a bad day.

I've had quite a few experiences with the crew at BC and had nothing but great response from them.

Just left there an hour or so ago. Really nice guys and a great shop. I would highly recommend them.

I bought an Azola there years ago and the sales process and service were flawless. I will likely pick up a Fender P5 from them as well. They had a nice one in stock today...

Five years ago, I purchased my white Spector Euro LX from Bass Central, and it was one of the most pleasant buying experiences I've ever had. While I dealt primarily with Beaver Felton, I did speak with several other employees during the process, and each & every one of them was courtious, knowledgable and professional.
I wish I lived a bit closer to Florida (I live in Denver) because I want to trade in my Ric 4001C64 for another Spector Euro. As it is, I plan on selling the Ric on Craigslist and purchasing my 2nd Spector from Beaver the old-fashioned way - via credit card. My only decision will be, which color? Standard, Doug Wimbish or Ian Hill model? 34" or 35" scale? Fretted or fretless? Hmmm, I guess I do have a bit of thinking to do, but where & who I'm buying from is already crystal clear.
