Any good bass shops in Dallas/ Fort Worth Area?

[Kramsey]

Hello all, do any of you know of a good shop that sells good bass stuff in the DFW area? I mean like a local shop. I just moved here and I am looking for one.

-thanks

You might want to check in with a couple of the local techs and get some refs from them:

1) Willie Whittaker, NBS Electronics, 230 South Broadway, Denver, CO, 80209-1510, 303-778-1156. Specializing in tube amplifiers, Fender in particular. Because of the enormous volume of work I have, I'm SLOW - so if you need it yesterday, I'll be glad to give you a phone number for another local tech. De-modding and un-hacking services available. Over 40 years experience. Tons of tubes, speakers and repair parts in stock. Note that I do *not* do re-Tolexing, grille cloth, or cabinetry - this ain't no beauty parlor. I'm amp tech for Derek Trucks, and I built the amps he uses with the Allmans. 'Nuff said. ;-)

2) In Denver I found that Noel at Stubbyfex is pretty good. Very honest work, fair pricing, and overall good to deal with.

I really trust the guitar tech at guitar center in ft worth on hulen st. I've given him my stuff for many years, long before he worked for these guys. His name is Gerald.
