Ebay 'shakes head'

[John Delventhal]

I posted this on TB because i'd prefer not to clutter up this forum with BS but, no one has answered. I saw this on ebay. It looks like a German bow with the wrong frog thrown on it and an ebony screw that may have been cut down as well. Am I right?

Here is a link to the sellers photobucket for when the auction ends. http://s396.photobucket.com/albums/p...ent=IMG132.jpg

And the info from the ebay ad....

This old fine french full sized (70,6 cm) double bass bow is offered to the highest bidder with no reserve. I think the bow has been made in appr. 1930.


The strong stick is round with an excellent balance and a great quality, it makes a marvellous big and warm tone. The bow weighs 142 grams. There are no cracks or repairs to the straight stick and ebony frog. The ebony screw has a crack, view pictures.
