Welcome to the best bass showroom in the DC metro area.

The shop is located at 3143 Mt Vernon Ave. Suite 8A in Alexandria, VA 22305. The shop is in the back of the building, where the parking lot is located. The trick to finding the shop is to turn onto Herbert St. from Mt Vernon Ave. to find the rear entrance to the building and the parking lot. Just look for the sign that says "Jive Sound" in big black letters. Just enter that office, knock on the interior door and I'll be happy to let you in. If I'm otherwise occupied, don't hesitate to give me a call. For general directions, I suggest using Google maps. See you at the shop!

Currently store hours are Fridays 4-7 and Saturdays 1-5. Other hours are available by appointment.

There's lots of good stuff in here!
The best selection and inventory of bass equipment in the Washington DC area.

Jive Sound offers a quiet and relaxed atmosphere to try out gear. No noisy guitars or drums wailing away in the background, just a comfortable environment where you can try out the best with no pressure or distraction.

We have the best gear on display at Jive Sound, and plenty of it. It's about quality, not quantity. Hand made bass guitars, high-tech amplifiers, and neato effects and more can be found at Jive Sound.

We also specialize in friendly atmospheres, low pressure sales, and having fun. Even non-bassists like coming to Jive Sound.

In addition to selling bass gear, Jive Sound will also do repairs and lessons at the shop. Call or e-mail for more details.

Oh, and never mind this guy.
He always seems to hang out here and acts like he owns the place.
