    Double Bass OLD Kay Endpin Question

    Here is what I have.... I was told, because of the war that steel and adjustable end pins became an option. It made sense but that doesn't mean that it is correct. End Pin by Bum Arm Bob posted Jan 5, 2015 at 10:06 AM End Pin by Bum Arm Bob posted Jan 5, 2015 at 10:06 AM

    Double Bass OLD Kay Endpin Question

    I have a 1943 Kay M1 that has never had an adjustable endpin. It still has the original tapered dowel that it rests on. My question is, if I purchase an adjustable endpin, will it just slide into the dowel hole with out any mods? Or is this something that will take an act of congress to make...

    I know you meant nothing by it, that is why I thought it was funny. However, I can't refer to my bass as a "Singing Elephant"..... It reminds me too much of an ex. LOL

    I hate to say this but I received an email this morning and may have found a bass local. It is currently touring but will be in town on 11/11. Sorry but I will let you know how this one turns out.
