Percieved Difference in the Low end on the E string

[Jeff Gellis]

If 50 years or so is a fair break-in period.... my bass is not broken in, not settled, not born yet. The bass was completed 90 days ago.

I hope that incremental improvements happen over time and I don't have to wait the full break-in period because at age 99 (I'm 49 now), I don't think I will be able to hear let alone play, a double bass.

At my funeral they can say "too bad he didn't live to hear his bass broken in"
I won't ask to be buried in it.

Great stuff, thanks all
