Due to the sheer size, the upright or double bass requires a meticulous construction with attention to detail, quality materials, and lots of love to produce a big, rich sound. Of course, all instruments require the same, but the bass is a heftier version of all the above.
Many people think Pierre Holstein, aka Fiddlerman, only tests out the violins and violas. However, Fiddlerman tests, curates, and works directly with the maker to produce the best basses as well!
Fiddlershop also sets up the double basses, and our Concert Double Bass is no exception. It has a gorgeous deep sound, and is a top quality bass in its price bracket.
