Regretfully, selling my Emanuel Wilfer double bass. The bass is a 2016, and I am the first owner. The bass is in excellent condition, and the sound both bowed and pizz is incredible, easily the best of any bass I have ever tried. A great all-around bass that would be just as home in a classical...

Knilling 3/4 flatback bass
Carved top
40.75” string length
Eb neck
Purchased about 25 years ago. This one is a true closet queen! I was never successful in making the transition to upright bass so it has spent almost the entire 25 years in a gig bag in the corner of my bedroom. It has never even...

Hey all,
I'm looking to compile a list of fine double bass dealers. I think it would be helpful for students, such as myself, who are looking to upgrade their instruments. It doesn't have to be a particularly large shop, just as long as they deal in high quality basses. Heres the list I have so...
David Herman baroque style double bass bow (French). I had this bow made for me 2018; it has a pernambuco stick, katalox frog, and a imitation ivory button. It’s a great playing bow but I simply don’t play it enough to warrant keeping it around.
Asking for $900 obo. Shipping is not included...

I got an Underwood bass pickup for my upright bass recently, and it's been giving off a super annoying buzz sound that you can only hear when playing the e string. I've included an audio clip of me playing it so that you can hear what I'm talking about. As you'll hear, it only affects the e...
Hi All,
I've been playing electric since 1982 and finally bought myself my first upright - a well-used Meisel - made in Germany, age unknown. This is actually my second upright - my wife rented one for my 50th birthday 4 years ago, but I returned it after a year of complaints that it was too...
Hi there,
I need some advice. I am planning to buy a new amp (or combo) for practicing and gigs in small places and I am a bit lost with so much information.
My budget is 500-600 EUR max, I will not use it so much and I am not a pro, but I need it. I use a Realist pick-up and, so far, a cheap...

Hi there,
I’m having hard time finding double bass solo albums with lots of bowed melodies that are not classical per se but the double bass arco still sounds pure and lyrical. Most non classical solo works are experimental and the arco is deliberately out of tune, lots of screeching, etc...
Hi guys, I recently graduated high school and had been using a Cremona sb-2 supplied by my school, but I have to return it in the coming weeks. I have been looking for something to replace it in the under 2000 price range. Because i play both jazz and classical, I heard that a hybrid bass would...
Hi all, i’m hoping someone can help shed some light on this 3/4 bass i’ve had for around 10 years and possibly help value it for sale. It’s a bit rough round the edges (literally) but it does play very nice. No obvious markings other than a “Made in Hungary” sticker that looks to date it to...

Hi all,
Been a very long time since I last posted on TB; hope everyone's survived the pandemic with as little negative impact as possible. Apologies if this is not the correct forum for a request of this nature.
I'm potentially going to be travelling to NZ mid-July for a gig (16/7) and am...
For Sale is my venerable 2015 Chadwick Folding Bass. This bass has accompanied me on many tours throughout the USA, Canada, the UK, Europe, etc, most frequently with the Transatlantic Sessions and Martin Harley.
The bass and case are well-worn, but as far as Chadwicks go the build quality and...

Hey, Everyone!
I hope this finds you well! I just wanted to take a moment to share some educational content I've been putting out as of late.
Most of this stuff applies to Double Bass.
However, my most recent video can be considered for electric bass, as well.
Please do let me know what...

I've just seen a bad review of the upshot combo that I was thinking of buying to use on jazz gigs with my double bass. Is anyone out there using it? And loving it? I'm super keen to get something I can fit in a back-pack.
Hey everyone. I have recently been offered the opportunity to join a community orchestra, so I will be playing arco. I am going to buy a used plywood instrument because that's what's in my price range.
The Kay: $800. Has a few bumps and bruises but no major cracks or structural damage. Model...

I'm looking to buy a Biesele Double Bass magnetic pickup.
If anyone has one that they would like to sell, please let me know.
I'm in Australia, but prepared to pay shipping costs.
Thanks
