The Bass section from Left to Right; Chris Clark (Saxon bass early 20th century), Larry Jones (W.Uebel, Saxony late 19th century), Harvey Kaufman (1980 Pollmann), Ken Smith (1910 Lowendall).
The Lowendall impressed me so much and in many ways, that I have decided to put it thru a full restoration. I dropped it off at AES in NY last Saturday. It will then likely become my main personal bass. In the mean time (4-6 months), I am using my Pollmann. (Edit: I mean the Marconcini.. no, no.. I mean the Marcucci. Back to the Italian.. lol)
