Yeah, you're on it, I'm on it. All thinking (and especially listening) musicians are forever parties to that noble quest to improve their amplified sound. It was my personal quest for sound that got me into the biz of making these pickups, mics, amps, cabinets, instruments, and other stuff available to fellow musicians -- see the Who's Bob? page for the dirty details. I proudly offer a varied line of pickups and microphones, preamps, and amplifiers along with other superior products for bass players (and other musicians) at very good prices. You will notice one thing here that is rare... a large number of the bass items that I sell are those that I used before becoming a dealer — and anything I consider adding had better pass the "Bob Test" or you won't see it here.

We will continue to add cool new bass stuff now that we're finished implementing our new web presence. Any suggestions for additions?? Please email me! Take a look around, you'll see new items here and there, various bass needs that I've been wanting to add for a while.

At left you'll find menus for browsing categories of products that will take you to results pages that can be further refined by clicking on the entries to the right of the results. There's also a search engine block at the top of the column to help you locate what you want. Specific information on ordering details, contact info, product manuals (also linked to each product), and warranty info is under the INFO heading.

"HELP! What should I buy?" We've tried to include as much information on each product as possible; I endeavor to bring as much detailed information to you about each item — and not just the marketing talk — as I can. If you're looking for a bass pickup, but don't know which one would be best for you, I'd suggest taking a look at the "Overview" page to start. Narrow down your choices using the short description, then follow the links to get more detailed information on the ones that interest you most.

We also include links to Product Manuals where they are available. Just click on the special button on the page (shown at left). Many of the manufacturers' Product Warranties are recapped on a special page you can access under the INFO heading.

However, if you're still unsure, QUESTIONS are always welcome, whether you are buying stuff or not! We're all in the same boat, and if I don't know the answer, I'll try and point you in the right direction. Making sales is not my only reason for living — I have been a bass player a whole lot longer than a music store owner.

We've developed some NEW RESOURCES on the Gollihur Music site. You'll find even more answers to Frequently Asked Upright Bass Questions in the FAQs section, and those same FAQs are also linked on product pages where they apply. My Double Bass Links have been on the web since 1996, and include over 900 links to upright bass-oriented sites, as has the Luthier Directory which includes dozens of bass makers and repairpersons all over the world. An experienced luthier can be invaluable to we bassists. If your favorite repairperson is not included, please let me know. We also have a revised free Upright Bass Classified Ads section where you can now directly enter your ad.

Holy Cow! FRETS on an Electric Upright Bass?!?!

Yes, Batman, it's true! NS Design now offers a fretted version of it's 5 string BassCello! And this is not one of those silly vertical bass guitars on a stick, it's a 34 inch scale instrument with a traditional curved upright bass style fingerboard, so you can have your frets and bow them, too! Photos are coming, email for pricing on this and all of NS Design's fine basses.

We now accept DISCOVER...
