WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING

Since I started to collect vintage Ibanez basses, Bass Japan Direct has been a fantastic source for finding even more wonderful, rare, & obscure instruments to add to my collection.
Service & communication are second to none, and the choice of basses is vast, varied and tempting beyond words!
Prices & shipping are also pleasingly & surprisingly good. Actually the best I've ever encountered!

-Dave Swift (Jules Holland) London, England.

Absolutely amazing customer service, absolutely amazing value for money, and most important, at least to me, is that Danny is passionate about what he does. I bought a Yamaha BB1200 on here a few months back, and it has not failed to deliver to this day. Easily 5 stars.

I just received my CIJ Fender Mustang with competition stripes perfectly packed (and set). I couldn't be more happy with Danny's excellent work. Highly recommended

 - Francois Toussaint, France

I just bought a 1981 Greco Spacy Sound jazz bass from The Bass Hunter. He found it quickly and at a great price, including shipping. Masterful communication, never left me wondering. And just a super cool guy.
I should be receiving the bass here in L.A. in a few days. I'm totally stoked to know that it will be professionally set-up right out of the box, for optimal playability.
Thanks, Danny
