I have an Engelhardt 3/4 Double Bass.
Model C-1
Serial No. 77268
From this serial number, would anyone on this forum know what year it would have been manufactured? My wife stole...uuuuhhhhmmmmm bought it used.
Thanks from Indiana.

But seriously, here's what is on Bob Gollihur's site: http://www.gollihurmusic.com/results...tList.cfm?m=19
So, it's less that 45 years old. |
