| No two basses are alike. Each
instrument has a unique combination of sound, playability, health
and pedigree. You can learn a few things about a bass
from a description and photograph, but there is no substitute
for actually playing, hearing and seeing the instrument.
We are located in Yonkers, New York, just
north of New York City, 1/2 hour by car from midtown Manhattan,
and 37 minutes by Metro North train from Grand Central Terminal.
Trains leave at least once an hour. We show basses
by appointment only, but hours are quite flexible.
If you decide that one of our basses might
be right for you, we offer a ten-day trial period for you
to get to know the bass better. You may then show it
to your teacher or repair person for evaluation. To
take a bass out on trial, we will accept any of the following
three methods to secure the instrument while it is in your
possession:
- A bank check, money order, certified
personal check or cash (uncertified personal checks are
not sufficient) for the full asking price, payable to the
BassGarden,
- Proof that the instrument has been added
to your existing musical instrument insurance policy, along
with a bank check, money order, certified personal check
or cash equal to the policy's deductible, or
- A payment via PayPal®, the secure,
internet-based payment service, for the full asking price
of the bass.
If you decide that the bass isn't right
for you at the end of the ten-day trial period, you may return
it for a full refund, providing no damage has been done to
the bass. Any necessary repairs will be solely your
responsibility and deducted from your refund. The BassGarden
reserves the right to withhold a significant portion of the
refund until an estimate of damages is made and/or repairs
are completed.
If you can't get to the BassGarden, it
is possible to have a bass shipped to you. We offer various shipping options and the best method of shipment may
depend on where you are located, value of instrument or
other factors. You will be responsible
for shipping costs to you and return shipping to the BassGarden
in the event you decide not to keep the bass.
