Question Best Place On The Web to Buy a Bass?

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm looking for a fender american jazz bass, or custom copy, and I have some preferences as to color and features. So far, I haven't found many options by just doing a search on google, plus, it's nice to deal with someone based on a recommendation, rather than just a blind shot in the dark. Any favorite sites out there?

Premiere shop that sell vintage Fenders

There's a million places to buy basses of all kinds on the net. Is there a shop that has the best reputation in dealing with these kinds of instruments(maybe somewhere in Nashville) bar none... Maybe a top 3
that are world famous and have a web site. Buying vintage is a tricky proposition.

If you know, let me know!

Thanks in advance
