Bass ID
Hi Ken,
I hope you are well. I was hoping you could give me your thoughts on the age/origin of this bass. Any help would be appreciated! |

The bass is Germanic. Maybe Saxony or across the border on the Czech side/Bohemia. Early 1900s. The finish does not look original to me. Nice quality instrument.

Ok, thanks Ken! It was for sale as a Mittenwald bass circa 1860’s. Is that possible to your eye? I know pictures can’t do the bass justice.

Mittenwald with a round back? I think I am correct. You should look at sites with Neuner and Hornsteiner basses and see what they look like. Mittenwald is used too often to ID Saxon basses.
