Old Double Bass - Make Unknown...


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello,

I'm selling my Double bass that I have owned for about 12 months, I thought I would try my hand at it but I just don't have the time for it, and the student loan repayments have kicked in! hence the sale.

She is an old, dusty 3/4 size double bass that is in need of a new set of strings and a setup probably. There are no markings anywhere on it to suggest a maker or date. The previous owner told me that his dad had owned this and he must have been about 45-50 ish so this has gotta be at least 65 years old The previous owner also told me that it had a professional repair done on the neck at some point, this does not affect playability and the instrument is totally solid.

I am selling this for £350. There is no way I can send this to anybody so collection is a must.

Please call me on 07835184478 if you are interested. I am based in Gosport, near Portsmouth on the South Coast.

I've wanted one for ages, and my family (about 20 of them!) asked what they could buy me, I said 'double bass' and they asked me to find one. As soon as i got back from the studio, there was on eon the computer! Madness I tell you. S I thought, why not, and hopefully she will be mine very shortly.

i can't wait! She'll be on stage with me in a few months hopefully. I have an EUB that doesn't do the trick. Perhaps I'll put that up for sale instead!

Hello,

My double bass is still for sale, the original buyer decided not to go ahead with the sale as he was unable to come and collect it from me.
