It has old Belcantos on it, maybe 2 years old. I just tuned them up a whole step.
I was at the rehearsal this afternoon and watched him play thru the pieces over and over trying 3 different Bows that he brought over. He asked me as I sat in the back how each one sounded and at the Master Class and Recital, he had just one Bow on stage with the Bass. All the Bows sounded good but one sounded better than the others for the full range of that bass.
It was a good day. I learned a few things from watching him teach and play as well.
