    The soundpost will often sit within a small foam ring on the back of the bass, to stop it from falling.

    That is such a shame, and such a poor response from G4M.

    This is a great bass. Totally solid. Everything you need for years of hard playing and gigging. It sounds and plays great too.

    Looks a bit like a stentor. I had a carved stentor once and it was great.

    No worries. Congratulations on your new bass. 😄 If you ever need repairs or setup, give me a shout.

    Hi. Over the years I’ve restored and sold a fair few old German basses 1800-1920ish they’re always really nice and around £5k. I have one as my main gigging bass at the moment and two very similar in the workshop nearing completion. DM me if you’d like to talk and come and try. I’m in Bath.

    sold. Stentor Profundo 3/4 bass. The Profundo I believe is Stentor's top line double bass, with a spruce top, Flamed maple back and sides, ebony fingerboard and tailpiece. This bass has received a new neck of highly flamed maple and has much nicer general proportions than the original neck, with a 105 cm string length and slimmer profile. The bass is in great structural condition with just the usual scuffs and dings that you would expect from a well used bass. No splits or cracks. It has a new setup with new spirocore light strings and adjustable bridge. It plays and sounds great. Would make a great jazz bass or a great bass for an orchestral student. £1700.
