Dealers of Upton Bass Double Basses

Upton Bass String Instrument Co. - Dealers

Upton Bass String Instrument Co. is currently in the process of establishing a network of fine dealers.  As of January 2009 we have taken on a new structure of how we will be working with dealers.  Our dealers will be exclusive to territories and selected by us for their reputation, quality of work and respect in the industry as well as how they intend to implement our product in their lineup.  We are seeking to expand our network of dealers nationwide in select metropolitan areas.  We are known for being picky about the basses we make and we are even pickier about who sells them!  Our dealers are not simply .com's or middle men who never touch the bass they sell you.  Our dealers take the time and investment to stock our basses and they know our product.  In-turn Upton Bass dealers are given our support and backing, be it advertising help or their selection of our best stock, we stand behind and appreciate them selling the instruments we craft.  If you are in their local area please contact them for current inventory and availability.  If they do not have an instrument in stock that you are interested in, we may have one being made for them.  Please ask!  Call us with any questions 860-535-9399
