Some questions about a bass

[Fernando González]

Thanks Ken!!!
What is the correct angle of the neck? Does it depends of another measurements of the bass or there is, more or less, a standart?

This, I do not know. What I do like is about 35mm or overstand and 6.5 - 7" of Bridge height. The height depends on the Arch of the Bass as well as the feel of each individual instrument.

When a Luthier knows the actual Bass well, he can usually do his best job to make corrections and adjustments.

I understand Ken.
When I began to study music it looked a very long way. I think violin making/repair looks the same!!!
Much to learn.

Thank you.

Fernando.
