| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Paris (France, Europe) | | | Christian Laborie "Piattellini" Beautiful bass made in 2008 by french luthier Christian Laborie.
Smaller double bass than the “Ceruti” model with sloping shoulders and a round back with a bevel in the upper bout.
The large ribs give this model a powerful, deep sound, and because of its shape, allows for accessible upper register playing.
Convenient for classical music, jazz and contemporary music.
String length : 41’’1/2 (105/106cm)
Total length : 5’ 10’’ (177cm)
Top length : 42’’ (107cm)
Price : 23000 euros. (EVR cover included)
The instrument is in France (Paris),
Don't hesitate to ask for more details.
