Received my 3rd bass that I've purchased through Greg this past weekend, and once again, I have nothing but good to say about my dealing with him.

And somewhere down the road, I'll be buying another one from him (fretless needed/wanted). But if I wanna stay married, I am not even gonna mention that to my wife for quite a few months.......

I have dealt with many stores over the years and there are very few that make my 'List' for repeat business... Rocket Music is at the top of that list.

Number 3 from Greg is on order now. I have nothing but good things to say. Without question the best music store I've had the pleasure of doing business with!

I meant to bump this thread myself.

3 basses in total I now bought from Greg.
Way cool that he ships international. That's how I get the good stuff. (Roscoe and Gadow)

Good communication, great prices and impacable service. Good shipping, much bubble wrap.


Except taxes and duties are killer.
I suspect the Belgian state makes more money out of the transaction than Greg makes a profit.

Nice to see people taking the time to commend good costomer service.

Its all well and good that we can b**ch and moan online when its done badly but i think we need to share our experiences when its done really well. It may help more stores give good customer service instead of just "not offensively bad" customer service.

Oh, man, don't say that!! Heh-heh - I'm kidding... sort of

Trading can be a nightmare, but I always try to make it fair for both of us. At the end of the day, I'm going to make something when I sell your stuff for you... but I'm not going to rape you 6 ways to Sunday.

Thanks very much for much for the good wishes! I hope we can make this latest deal come through, you've got me interested in what you have...

Haven't bought a bass from Greg................YET!

But I placed a small item order today and had shipping notification and a cordial e-mail from Greg before I could get my credit card back in my wallet.

Kudos Greg & Rocket.
Take it from a guy in the customer service business.....this is as good as it gets.

Same here, called Greg 10 min before closing, placed order, got great deal and amt. was on my debit card asap. I feel very confident dealing with Rocket. Wish other retailers, etc.. were so responsive

On the last item that I purchased from Greg, I called, placed the order, hung up the phone and the door bell rang.

It was the UPS guy leaving it on my front porch!

Greg's like the Santa Claus of bass gear!

.....maybe he's an over-grown elve!

Ditto!!! Simply outstanding service all around, start to finish. Both my orders which included multiple shipments with parts being dropped shipped were placed on Monday morning with stuff from Greg's shop arriving 24hrs later and drop shipments 48 hours later.

Over and above the call of duty - always fast and eager to answer questions and bend over backward to make sure you're 100% confident and comfortable with your purchase and product... Have I said "outstanding"!!!!!

And for us bass players what an added perk that he's a bassist with a discriminating taste in equipment, music, tone, etc. Simply a win-win situation all around.
