    Double Bass 75" Englehardt ES1 vs Christopher 100

    Not necessarily reflected in the price. A new Englehardt ES1 runs $1489 new from Gollihur, not including cost of setup, so the two are pretty comparable in price. The thing to consider is that the 35 year old Englehardt has had some time to age and mellow, whereas the wood in the Christopher and...
