That is so f***ing dangerous, does that f***ing idiot not know what can can take place between flares and a bike chain when  trouser clips have been irresponsibly left out of the equation 😡

I've decided to stick with my NS Omni Bass as I can get a nice fretless kinda upright sound 

But I'll be on the lookout for a used lefty double bass or if I can find a right handed one that's suitable to convert 

Thanks for the input form everyone 👍

Here's a piic of my NS

Hi there, I think we 've talked before. I might sell my lefty T&G Martin upright bass, or maybe do a mutual/partial trade.

Great opportunity, extras included. We could have George Martin to help with the shipping.

Correct reasons for selling (personal family issues: wife > cerebral cancer (not kidding))

Best regards

These are quite lovely...and I've never seen a leftie before.  They're mostly owned by orchestral players and soloists for whom right handed is the only way.  This kind of quality don't come cheap I think.
