Soundposts and the like

[Gareth Hughes]

I can't tell if the soundpost is glued in place, or if the disc has a hole in which the soundpost is inserted. Possibly the latter.

The body of this bass is only about three inches deep at best, so this measure is there as the bass is designed as a travel bass, with the strings/bridge being taken of regularly.

Thanks Ralph and Mike.

Good answers and explanations aplenty. Hadn't thought of checking out TB on this subject. The constant arguments over mundane opinions became a little too much

Did you get the Corsini yet?

Hi Ken,

Would you believe it's still in Customs? I know it arrived here nearly two weeks ago, but paperwork got caught up in a bank holiday weekend. The freight folks are on top of it but they're waiting for the VAT paperwork to clear.

I'll give you a call with the bow details. Probably be early next week.
