Hi, thanks for the enquiry. I can really meet you as the ferry prices to take a car off the island are enormous. I could meet you in Southampton or Lymimgton as a foot passenger.

Happy to post, it's the same as mainland cost, won't be more than £20 max, I'll split the exact cost 50/50 if you're interested. The box is purpose built for safe postage.

Hi Laurence! Hope all's well with you and your music making. Long time no speak. How old are these strings and I'm curious as to how different they are in feel and weight of sound from the Evah Weich's, which I'm currently on? Best Jon

Nothing yet, surprisingly haven't had a nibble on this one! Going for a Pollmann Busetto when I do x

Bespoke Colin Cross 2008 Flatback Upright Double Bass 3/4 Made for Jon Thorne in 2008 by Colin Cross at The Buxton Violin Shop. 3/4 size flat back bass. It features : A 39 inch stop length for tremendous ease in left hand playing. Irving Sloane Machine Heads, the finest geared machines in the world. Very slender shoulders for easy access to the high register. A truss rod in the neck for extra support. A slim neck for left hand comfort. Highly figured seasoned flamed maple for superior tone, and an ebony fingerboard. A Fishman Full Circle Pick Up in an adjustable bridge. A custom made Deluxe Mooradian Softcase. The sound of this bass is exceptional, with very deep rounded growling low notes and excellent clear high notes, with all registers speaking very quickly and clearly due to the flatback. It has played in well and has been used on an extensive number of gigs and on a wide variety of music. This would make an ideal instrument for a soloist in either jazz or classical music due to the combination of rich tone and the speed and ease with which it can be played through the entire register. It would also suit someone with smaller hands or anyone who feels that they “fight” with a larger bass. This bass produces a loud and full sound without having to have a high action, and is very easy to intonate accurately on. This instrument can be heard to good effect on numerous recent CD releases including : Lucy and the Wolves - Martha Tilston (Pizzicato) One Good Thing - Lou Rhodes (Bowed) LOB (length of back) - 108cm (42.5in) 
Width across upper bouts - 47.75cm (19.5in) 
Width across middle bouts - 35cm (13.75in)
 Width across lower bouts - 63cm (24.75in)
 Depth of lower ribs inc both plates - 19.8cm (7.8in) 
String length - 99.1cm (39in) Price - £10,495.00 ono. I can provide further photo’s or MP3‘s of the bass on various tracks upon request. Feel free to come and try in out in person in Manchester. Please email me with any further questions, or call 07540 633670 Payment to be arranged after the sale. Thanks for looking. See the Double Bass section for more photographs.
