This Bass has now been
Sold. As it turns out, the Martini
(sold now as well) and Hart Basses are closer to what I am used to as far as body size goes. After playing this Bass a few times I came to realize that it is just a bit too big for me the way I play now.
It was fun these past few years searching and discovering as well as discussing all the possibilities and finds. This particular 'saga' has now come to an end as far as being in my possession. A very talented professional Orchestra player now owns and plays the 'Big Gamba' on a daily basis. 'Big Ben' has a new home and will be played and loved daily..
