[size=4]Double Bass 3/4 Hungarian student model. Ply sides carved top 1950's.[/size] [size=4]Inc [/size]very thick soft zipped cover. [size=4]Top quality ebony fingerboard cut to 2 octaves. Work carried out by John Sydenham. [/size] [size=4]Low bridge profile set up for finger style, not suitable for bowing, string height is on the high side at the moment.[/size] [size=4]Shadow SH 950 pickups.[/size] [size=4]With 3 sets of strings, Honeys, Spirocores, and Helicores.[/size] [size=4]It won't win any beauty pageants, with a rough repair to the body side, and the purling is in very poor condition. [/size] [size=4]It has a good even acoustic sound through the registers, and works well with an amp, with many compliments about the tone.[/size] [size=4]It's been played professionally for many years on jazz gigs, functions and cruise ships.[/size] [size=4]This is a bass for a student or a someone who wants an that sounds much better than it looks. It's a reliable stable instrument that's served me very well.[/size] [size=4]Most of my work is on the trombone now, and the occasional D/B is played on a nicely set-up Stagg, therefore lack of use brings about the sale.[/size] [b][size=4]Ashburton, South Devon.[/size][/b] [size=4]More pictures here.
