I'm selling my incredible Bernard Walke French Bow that I purchased from David Gage in 2017. This is an incredibly agile and loud stick that can handle both orchestral and solo playing with ease. The sound is neutral-bright and really soars in the upper registers while being articulate and clear...

It sounds just as beautiful as it looks. I purchased this bass from Robertsons and Sons in Albuquerque NM 3 years ago. I had tried out numerous basses in that same price range and this pieces deep resonance and defined tone appealed to me immediately. I decided to further enhance the sound and...
An inexpensive job-winning bass. Copy of the Minnesota-owned bass formerly attributed to Gofriller, made around 2000 by Chi Yang (spelling?) in (maybe?) Chicago. Not a lot of info on the bass's origins or maker other than this was the last bass he made that I know of before founding Christopher...

Won a set of Pirastro Flexocore Deluxe non-extension strings last week. Don't use Deluxes anymore, so looking to sell them. Pretty self explanatory. Price is shipped continental US.

Just curious about your preferences. The vast majority of concerts I've played, the section is relegated to the Stokowski "stage right" position (at times behind the celli; and at other times behind the second fiddles). I've never played stage left, although I think the natural inclination of...
Thinking of acquiring a set of Spiro Weichs to try for orchestral playing. Been reading up on the plethora of threads, but I want to see if anyone wants to chime in directly. (Currently playing Belcantos; goal is to see what effect reducing tension on the top has on the voice of the bass.)...
Hi everyone,

Here is the video of the full live played at the antic theater of Orange on the 05/19
i ask for you indulgence for the sound quality and for some musical mistakes. In fact a lot of musicians didn't...
I just saw a listing for passione in a red mitchel set. Has anyone tried them yet?!- signed a very excited fifths player who is having a hard time giving up his Obligato da and spw gc set but needs more punch, articulation, and volume in orchestra.

Hello,
I have seen many people have play solo literature and play in orchestra. They have solo tuned string for the solo and orchestral tuned strings. I have seen many people use a different instrument for solo and orchestra. However, I have seen people use the same bass for both solo and...
... SOLO strings in orchestral tuning - with an as clear and “cutting through acoustically as much as possible” pizz sound.
Hit me with your experiences and suggestions! :-)
Hi,
I'm new to upright bass. I play jazz. I have a good setup on my bass but im pretty sure i have d'addario orchestral strings (blue). First, how can i be sure ? Whats the color of the jazz strings ? And second, is it a big deal for now or i should immediately buy the helicore jazz strings ...
I need new strings for my bass. I play it exclusively in orchestral/classical situations, so arco performance is the biggest consideration. My problem is that my carved-top, solid flat-back bass is particularly bright sounding, and it's also fairly difficult to bow with the D and G in particular...
Regrettably, I am parting with my personal instrument that helped me to win two professional orchestra auditions during the time that I was actively auditioning. The bass has your typical lush, spreading, complex Italian tone and is incredibly easy to play as well. It doesn't fight you anywhere...

Hi, I've recently bought a double bass for use in orchestras but it is currently set up for jazz. Which strings are high quality for an orchestral setting? I don't really want hybrid strings, I just want high quality orchestral strings. What would you recommend?
Hi,
I'm a double bassist in the Seattle area looking for teachers. I have 4 years of jazz experience through high school, but very little experience with orchestral music. I plan to continue playing in college, and I'm looking for instruction in both, ideally from 2 separate teachers. Anyone...
Full set of essentially unused Helicore Orchestral Medium strings. They were on a new bass I bought - I then took them off and put on Spirocores as I'm primarily a jazz player.
$80 shipped CONUS.
