New setup, yay! (Pics)

Hey everybody. This bass is from a maker named Sandro Luciano, and I got it a couple of weeks ago at Lisle Violins in Houston. The bow is from ArcoBrazil. Enjoy!

Very pretty! I like the scroll too. So, how does it SOUND? Can you tell us more about the maker? "Sandro Luciano" labeled imports?

Chinese import by West Coast Strings. The site says their higher end models are varnished and completed in California.

Thank you. It sure looked like a Chinese import but I couldn't find that info on their site. Perhaps I missed it. Anyway, thanks again!

Thanks everybody! I'm very happy with it. It sounds very nice, and is LOUD. It projects quite well.
