Happy New Year everybody!
Just got off the phone with Ken [who is working all day!] and felt nostalgic for this scene. I guess all the BS that went down at TB just put me off bass forum stuff in general. Kinda like to get back into it a bit. So...I'll see you guys around!

HAPPEY NEW YEAR FROM NORTH CAROLINA. I understand completely. I have similar thoughts about some of those at TB. One of the reasons I'm here.

Anyway, for those of you not so familiar with Jeff's work, he is one of the finest Luthiers I have know with great and attention to detail in his work. I had the pleasure of having his first full Chromatic C-extension and will probably have him make me another in the coming year for one of my Basses. Here is a look at the one he did on this Bass which also was repaired by him as well after I brought it in to the country. |

Nice work by Jeff there. I appreciate the clean lines and simple design that is not fussy nor takes away from the original as much as possible.
Ken , in your link to that bass you state it is signed by Leandro Bisiach who died in 1946. It was signed by Leandro Bisiach Jr. At the top of the page shouldn't it read Bass by Giacomo and Leandro Bisiach? I have seen some cellos that were labeled Giacomo and Leandro Bisiach and a couple violins also. These were the two youngest sons, of four, of Leandro Bisiach. I think Liandro Bisiach Jr died in the 1970's. |

yes, but..

I have some good information on its origin and some good info first hand from 3 sources IN Hungary about this Bass directly and some other suspected antiqued Basses. Maybe this belongs in another section, you think? Read more here in this new Thread about the Gypsy Fake/Antiquing Clan.. |
