High-End Bass Guitars - Dingwall, Mayones, Sadowsky & More

Welcome to Bass Freaks, you wonderful nerd.

Two bass players (Pierre Ganseman and Sargon Astepho), one supervisory cat with controversial opinions, one snuffy dog with a pure soul, and a decade of putting the right instrument in the right hands

Bass Freaks is a Belgian boutique webshop that exists for one reason: serious low end. Since 2016, we've matched over 3,500 premium bass guitars with players across 50+ countries : session monsters, touring professionals, and weekend warriors who refuse to compromise on tone.

Our Brands

We carry some of the most respected names in the bass world. Every brand here is one we'd stake a gig on : 

  • Dingwall - The best B-string in the business. Multiscale basses engineered for clarity and power across every register.
  • Moon - Handcrafted in Japan since 1979. Superior playability and tonal refinement that speaks for itself, for those into classic F designs.
  • Maruszczyk - Custom-level builds at a price that makes sense. Unbeatable value for a handmade European instrument.
  • Mayones - 100% handcrafted in Gdańsk, Poland. Bold aesthetics, serious tone, zero shortcuts.
  • Adamovic - Dutch craftsmanship at its finest. Every bass is a statement piece with a voice to match.
  • Sadowsky - The New York legend. Whether Metro or NYC, Sadowsky basses deliver clean, punchy, mix-ready tone.
  • Warwick - German engineering meets tonal authority. From the Thumb to the Streamer, these basses have defined genres.
  • Mattisson - Swedish precision. Handbuilt instruments for players who want something utterly unique, such a True Temperament fretting system.

We also carry Atelier Z, Overwater, Lakland, Spector, Ken Smith, and more. Don't see what you're after? Ask : we probably know where to find it.

WHY BASS FREAKS?

Nothing lands on this site without surviving our own hands first. We play everything before it goes live, photograph every instrument in-house with no colour grading or editing tricks, and pack every shipment like your bass is irreplaceable : because it is.

We ship globally and walk you through import logistics so you don't have to Google it at 2am. Our showroom is based in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, open by appointment : because we'd rather give you our full attention than rush you through a shop floor.
