Ok, so the basses in red are no longer here to play. The Marconcini is my current main Orchestra bass, partly by default. I have a show coming up so I will probably use the Kreutzer, it's safer in the Pit, I think!

A year from now, more or less, things can change again.

Now Bows, that's another story. With all my previous bows sold other than the Eibert/Sartory that I use for practice at home (or Shows and Jazz Gigs), I am playing two other bows that I acquired less than two years ago but never considered using either bow over the others I had then. The Slaviero and Lotte that I recently acquired.

New Bows, different basses. It's a revolving door here.
