Owned by luthier supreme and maker of Sei basses, Martin Petersen, this little bass specialist shop is the business. It caters to professional, amateur and beginner. Many name bassists go here for their gear and to get their instruments professionally setup. The walls are completely covered in basses, new and used, and also on the floor in front of the walls. The rest of the floor space apart from a narrow trail that leads from the front door down a couple of sets of stairs to the workshop in the basement is covered in amplifiers and speaker cabinets. A huge selection to choose from and anything not in stock can be obtained. The staff are friendly and give you educated, informed advice and are not just there to impress you with their bass chops like the now closed Bass Cellar in Denmark street was so fond of doing. There the typical service was to look down their nose at you for having the effrontery to enter their shop and then to punish you by showing off their bass slapping skills and talking to you as if they shared a private joke about you. You will NOT find that kind of childish, rude behaviour at The Gallery. You feel respected for simply being a fellow bass player and, more fundamentally, for being a human. They are happy you entered their store and are at pains to help you patiently to leave there a satisfied customer. I’ve purchased from them recently and have given them a couple of basses to sell for me for which they will take 15%. Yes, you can do better selling privately but here you agree on a price, they put it on their website and deal with the customer saving you much bother. In store you can try out basses and bass rigs without them putting any pressure on you to stop or buy. You are left to make your decision in your own time. I tried out a speaker cabinet for so long that it was practically second hand by the time I’d bought it but they left me to it and only stepped in when I had questions to ask them. The Gallery (aka The Bass Gallery) is small, professional establishment with friendly expert staff and I highly recommend it.

The dudes in the Bass Gallery are so knowledgeable - Charlie was able to work out exactly what I wanted, helping me circumnavigate the HUNDREDS of amazing instruments they have inshore... and then was so damn patient whilst I tried half the shop - literally nothing was too much trouble! When we found my DREAM bass, it was set up perfectly (they even managed to second-guess my strings of choice!) but having a workshop immediately downstairs meant that any tinkering was available if needed. Not all bass shops are created equal... and The Bass Gallery is the only place I'll go from now on! Can't thank you guys enough!

They did a really poor job installing a badass bridge on one of my basses a few years ago. I tried them again recently for a set up and once again I was very disappointed.

Awesome selection of basses, definitely go to the store rather than buying in reverb though as they don't put all their basses online.

Quite literally the best bass shop in the world. Martin, John and Charlie are always welcoming and really helpful and Martin is a wizard at instrument repairs and mods. Can't recommend it highly enough...

Just had my deluxe Precision setup and restrung here and it's never played better. I was so impressed I'm taking the rest of my guitars in for the same treatment.
