Great looking basses.

I like the short quiver.

toman - is this what you're looking for?


I think the answer is "yes."

Dr. Rod - Yep. There's an old thread, sans pics, here detailing the installation.

Calvin and Cam:
That quiver winds up putting the frog right about where it would be at the end of a downbow, meaning a slight drop of the tip and I can kinda just "sling" the bow right in.

I was afraid of that! Now we're all like voyeurs. I figured it was okay, given that your "naked" pictures have been posted publicly for some time.

Oh, I jest. I kind of enjoy the attention; I just wish it led to more traffic to my website.

Well, I, at least, visited your web site. You do have one beautiful bass!

That's awesome. I've been putting my bow a bit high in my normal quiver to achieve the same thing-a quicker draw. I need to look around to see if there's something similar available commercially vs. having one made like you did.

Well, I only paid $18, I think, for it. I called the local leather shop and asked them who in the area would be good for such a project.

Rumor has it a third Solano Klotz will be making it to Central Florida some time in the near future! If Monte comes by, it'll be a whole gaggle of 'em!
