my name is bibby and i am a bass voyeur. please help.

as a newbie, when i'm resting my still tender fingers i find myself wanting to look at pictures and read about double basses. and i know i'm not alone.

so, can some of you tell me your favorite sites? where do you go to just oggle double basses you could never afford. analyze pics and specs when there are many more "productive" things you could be doing.

please aid my addiction- just don't tell my wife

and www.urbbob.com the double bass links page and luthier directory, it would take you days to get thru all the links on his site.

this is actually one of my favorites. The wood on Arnold's, the scroll on Bolbach's.

I love it.
