3/4 Double Bass for sale - ON HOLD - *SOLD*
£375
East Yorkshire


Recommended Posts

I'm selling my double bass as it's not getting used and I could do with the space.

 

After asking around on here (see 'Help needed to identify DB' thread in EUB and Double Bass section), it would seem

it is probably a Boosey and Hawkes Excelsior ply model from around 1970's period. I can't find any labels to confirm

any more than this I'm afraid. The soundpost is in place, and the bass appears in fairly good condition. 

It plays fine with an action I can manage as an electric bass player! It has two pickups fitted, one of which is a Polytone,

(not sure about the other one). Both work although with a low-ish output, presumably typical of such pickups back in the day.

There are also two bows in a bag included with the bass.

 

The bass is for sale in East Yorkshire, about 12 miles west of Kingston upon Hull. I'd prefer cash on collection please, although

I may be up for a meet up somewhere or possible help with delivery, depending on where and when of course.

 

 

Any questions / offers / request for more pics etc welcome, and thanks for looking.

Skipton isn’t that far if you’re considering it - could maybe arrange a halfway thing with your bro?
😊


 

Just looked on Google maps. Castleford looks about half way….

Let me check and I’ll PM you. Anyone comes along in meantime then my bad luck.
