Look at the FFs! These are two different basses. Both look like Grancino's so maybe one was his and one was the State's.

Mmmm the Russian state lending a state collection instrument to a Chekoslovakian player ,that,s odd??? Why wouldn.t they lend that instrument to one of theirs (Azharkin, Rakov, Levinson etc...)

Are you referring to the one on the left in the picture on the right? That looks like a violone. Only one Grancino bass in those pics.

There's also the Grancino for sale at Kolstein's, though I admit it looks so much different it's hard to believe Kolstein's is really a Grancino.
