I've emailed these guys 3 times over the past week because I want to buy some stuff from them & had a couple of q's. No response to any of them.

SO, I'm looking to put an aguilar obp-3 in my warwick bass...

Does anyone know a place that is really good at this stuff? I need all the right pots & knobs & everything & want to find someone with experience putting these in warwicks

*** UPDATE. I've gotten ahold of brian, and he was very, VERY helpful.

I still don't have answers to the warwick/aguilar knob problem tho....

I know he's been busy putting walls in his new house.. but he's usually real good about answering his email... if you like i could call him for you or give you his number..
 
thanks very much for the offer, but honestly if a company cannot return my emails when i'm trying to buy something from them, they don't deserve my business. or anyone else's business for that matter

I have a choice, because there are many people who sell this stuff. Why should I give a business my money when he doesn't even bother to answer me? he doesn't deserve it.

thanks anyways, i really do appreciate the offer.

I always had great success with best bass gear. Bought my obp3 on one occasion (he even did some wiring for me), and special-ordered Nordstrand Fat Stack parallels on another occasion.

I've found bestbassgear very good and helpful.
 
For what it's worth, I've always had outstanding service from BBG. Even when I had a Bartolini pickup on a looooong backorder (as Barts can be sometimes), Brian kept me up to date with its status (his own initiative), even offering to refund my money and cancel the order if I felt like it was taking too long (which I didn't; Brian told me upfront after I ordered that it might take awhile due to circumstances at Bartolini, and I was willing to wait.)
