    My experience with this vendor has been thoroughly positive! I purchased a sizable assortment of books from them, and I got exactly what I wanted and earlier than expected! Everything precisely matched the listing description and the many photos provided. The books themselves were superbly packaged for transit, and because of that, they suffered no damage. For what I received, the prices involved were very much a bargain. I can't be any more satisfied with their exemplary customer service!

  • One if the Best!

    Easily one of the best books about bass guitars ever! Packed, Loaded and Crammed with usable content and history. The pictures could have been better and the overall layout could have used a better eye. However, it serves its purpose well.
