Lightbulb Shapes...

Guys n Gals, Corners are less important overall in comparison the the actual size and measurements of the Bass, not to mention the woods, quality of build and internal graduations. I would be more concerned about those points before I think about the Corner types.

I played my Bisiach labeled Bass last night and it has a nice punchy sound but it's not as deep and thick sounding at my Martini sitting next to it in my rack. Both Basses have similar form, shape and size but sound completely different. Why is that? Well.. because... They are two different Basses, different woods and made differently from what the eye can see.

Both Violin corners so that can't be the difference then can it?
