Double Bass Verbal Appraisal by Upton Bass

Double Bass Verbal or Email Appraisal by Upton Bass

Are you looking for a rough value of your double bass or maybe you have found a old Kay bass that needs an appraisal...something you think is a priceless relic, or just want to know what you have?  Literally hundreds of our customers email or call us with questions or send pictures of their instrument, asking for a resale price or repair estimate.  AFTER your verbal/email appraisal order has been placed - send 4 very clear, detailed pictures (*info listed below) that are sized under 1 MB to sales@uptonbass.com. Please reference your order number in the subject line of your email. After your order is processed we will examine the pictures and contact you with our opinion on your instrument by email, typically within 72 hours  With this service you can officially say "Upton Bass said it's worth"  We do also offer a full written appraisal certificate, we charge $250 for instruments under $10,000 USD and then 2% of the instruments value over $10,000. 

*Please see pictures of our Hawkes double bass below for examples of what we need.  A clear picture of the front, back, and  scroll both sides.  Upton Bass will contact you with any further required images.  Please notate any clear damage and also send limited pictures of damaged areas. 

Contact us with any questions about our verbal/email bass appraisal program at 860-535-9399  Rough values or opinions of instruments will not be discussed until we have received payment, unless however you are at one of our walk-in locations in which case a $75 "bench fee" is charged for repair evaluation, our bench fee is applied to any service that we render on your instrument.

It's important to us at Upton Bass to offer you the best service in the business and this service fee enables us to give you the attention you deserve for you and your bass.
