    RIP Mr. Davis. He sounds so great in so many different settings. A life well lived, a career well envied.

    Double Bass What D string instead of gut?

    I've used Oliv D, Evah Slap D, Golden Spiral D. But surprisingly the best sounding/functioning D had been a Stark Perpetual. Mixes well, bows well, feels good tension wise and has better high end info. Been pretty happy with it.

    RIP Tim Drummond

    I loved his playing, especially on all the Ry Cooder albums. He handled a lot of different grooves effortlessly. I remember learning some of lines and being really impressed with the articulation. Great player, sorely missed.

    Double Bass Flexocors

    Didn't try OF E/C but did try Evah E/C for a short bit. It sounded good but too dark on my bass with OF A. The weich E is much better match

    Double Bass Flexocors

    The weich E starts better and feels better tension-wise than the Spiro Mittel and Evah Pirazzi Medium Es I had prior. Starts a little slower than OF A but not a dealbreaker. On this bass those two lower strings pair well
