    Hello peoples of the bass internet

    I'm just wondering if anyone has any recommendations in the vancouver/ BC area for bass luthiers? I'm just looking to get a really good set up done!

    I live in Alberta and there aren't any bass specialists around these parts.

    Any recommendations would be awesome! Thanks in advance =)

    Certainly – Dave Reimer is an excellent luthier and a great guy. Paul Iverson is also excellent. I’ve heard good things about Nicole Alosinac as well although I haven’t worked with her yet.

    Imm guessing that you meant double bass luthiers? Gerard Samija and Rick Reynolds are two great names, as is Jake DeVillers. All three are excellent.

    ah, right, didn’t see this was on the DB side. I really liked Gerard’s work for that

    Yes to double bass! Even though thank you to the electric folk that popped in I'll bring my rickenbacker in at the same time
