##Viennese Double Bass circa 1860's Labeled Franz Feilnreiter##

Beautiful antique double bass made by Franz Feilnreiter $7500

+ Classic Viennese shape with narrow shoulders, 3/4 size, gamba corners, and slightly swelled back. Fully carved, pre-factory
+ Warm, singing tone - particularly in high register
+ Easy to play (41 1/2’’ string length) and professionally set up by Robertson and Sons
+ Beautifully restored hat-peg style ebony tuners
+ Fantastic instrument for talented high-schoolers, college studies, recitals etc.
+ Noticable repairs on top and ribs but solid and ready to go.

Recent work Summer ‘09 includes:
+ New Endpin, New bridge w/ adjusters
+ New sound post, fingerboard dress, and set-up
+ All work by Robertson and Sons Violins of Albuquerque, NM

Bass is set up and ready to go for classical playing although it would make a wonderful jazz bass as well. Could potentially use a new fingerboard.

This instrument is being sold by a professional symphony musician located in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Please PM or call 817-565-0187 if interested. Photos available at: http://www2.snapfish.com/snapfish/th...NAME=snapfish/

Great vintage tone for a close to factory price.


Thanks, Brian
