-I said that not long after the 20s, in the 40s musicians started traveling to europe and many bought italian and french basses.
-Jazz bassists in general played as much bow as the chinese from china eat hamburgers. In general enough bowing to get by except for the few exceptions in the jazz world.
Therefore many old basses in general that ended up in the hands of jazz players, hadn't been touched with a bow in a 100 years.

-The original subject was about the origin of my bass and age. Then bow hits on the body of basses entered the discussion when none where spotted on mine making it apparently a bass from the early 20th century which it is not.
Cheers !!!
