Andreas Morelli, how to determine age and value

[Bill Dove]

Thank you for your response. Hope these will help. The bass has a new bridge and has been used for jazz.

That is a Plywood Gamba bass. Not a carved Violin model. NOT a real Morelli. I had a Plywood bass like that recently. Worth a fraction of an actual Morelli.

Message me what they are asking for that bass. Like I said, Morelli is a Brand but the basses that got the Morelli label are not like that at all. A Morelli was an upper end imported carved bass. This is a lower end but nice plywood for its time.
