[quote name='ardi100' post='346822' date='Dec 5 2008, 09:49 PM']I went ahead and bought my school's unused double bass. My fears it was too small were unfounded, turned out my measuring was suspect.
It needed some work (new endpin, bridge, strings, tail wire and soundpost adjustment) and I've just got it back from Lawrence Dixon. Oh. My. God!! It's a different bass. Even my wife says it sounds beautiful!!
Will post pics but having trouble uploading them.
