I now have a Fender Player Bass rammed into a Squier Couldn't be happier with the results TL;DR Don't need to update my pickups A $60 solution ($18 per pot + caps), soldering and electronics chops saved me $100s Thank you for your time and professional advice

For a bass enthusiast like myself I could not ask for a better store to take care of all of my bass…read moreneeds. From strings to instruments and amplification and everything in between Club Bass is a one stop shop for a bass player. I have purchased 3 bass guitars, 1 amplifier and loads of strings and accessories from this store over the years and continue to be a loyal customer. Dave by far has the best selection of bass guitars and amplification in town and is far more knowledgeable than most instrument dealers around. Along with best selection in town Dave manages to keep his prices affordable and in a lot of cases lower than other music stores in town, even the big box stores. I have found that Club basses string prices are lower than most bigger box stores like Long and Mcquades and Dave even offers monthly specials. I recommend Club Bass to any bass player from beginner to professional. My one recommendation would be to check his website for his store hours as they are limited during the week and he is sometimes closed on Saturdays. Before you purchase a typical Fender, Ernie Ball, Ibanez .... Etc... Do not do so before trying out a Lakland or Sadowski. Its worth the trip. I have owned all of the typical brands over my 18 years of playing and I have sold them after getting my hands on the gear Dave has to offer. I have purchased 2 Laklands and 1 Sadowski bass from Club Bass and they will remain in my collection as my main basses for years to come ...... Until I can afford a Kennith Lawrence !

I've heard people say that Club Bass doesn't have a wide selection, my analogy is that they have a…read moreterrific selection of High Quality Instruments without having to sort through any crappy, junk gear, there is literally not a single lousy instrument in this shop. I have purchased a couple of basses & a couple of amps there, all top-quality gear that's often not available elsewhere, with prices that beat the big box & on-line competition. My Orange Head has served me well & priced 10% lower at Club Bass than what the big Chain Store was selling it for. Also happy with my DNA Amps 1350 head, it really sets a new standard in Bass Amplification. I'm overjoyed with my Sadowsky PJ Hybrid & Elrick Gold Series, a Hand-Carved, one-of-a-kind masterpiece built by Rob Elrick himself. I recommend Club Bass to any/all bass players at all levels, before spending a fortune on the same old - same old "Name Brands", try looking at what Dave has to offer, as many of the small builders that Club Bass carries have quality & price that blows away the big boys.

Not only was she totally up front about the repair, but she did an amazing job, such that it looks like it never happened. Fair prices. Realistic estimates for both cost and time to repair.

Staff at the store are excellent, knowledgeable friendly and go out of their way to ensure you get the right product. The solo necks are excellent value, frets are level, no sprout and are head and shoulders above a squire or other lower end guitars. Basic bodies are fine if you plan to finish with a solid colour and you will have to spend some time in prep before painting. A Solo neck fits the Solo bodies properly, fender necks may fit loose. Great value for what you pay, however you will have to put some effort into making that custom shop beauty. Great fun.

Thank you very much, Ash! it was a singular pleasure doing business with you.
