In July of 2005 I started a thread on TalkBass about the English School of Basses. By November or 2006, about 16 months later is was just short of 200 posts. While trying to avoid copying all the data here, I do want to re-cap the basics of what was discussed and learned. Still, I wish to continue this discussion of the English Bass which spanned about 150 years between the 18th and 19th centuries. Still, in the 20th – 21st centuries we see Basses being made in England.
