Welcome To Bryant Basses

elcome to the website of Paul N. Bryant.  Here you will find details of my fine hand-made English double basses, and other basses for sale.

Bryant double basses have established a reputation for quality and value for money, and are played in many leading orchestras in Britain and abroad, as well as for jazz and solo playing.

These basses are made entirely by hand using traditional methods and tools  I have no outworkers, no parts bought in from China, and no basses bought in the white and varnished; all of my basses are made by just me working alone. I only use oil varnish, usually a medium brown or red- brown colour; they are fitted with heavy brass machines, and heavy English pattern end pins.

Bryant basses are very affordable and offer superb value for the serious student or professional bass player.  No deposit is required to order one; just a genuine commitment to purchase the instrument if it meets your requirements.  Waiting times vary depending on work in hand.

Due to pressure of work, I am, at the present time, unable to accept  any more commissions for basses, although I do hope to have some for sale in the coming months, including a nice Gofriller model.
