[girlonbass]

Sorry for posting links already up on the site. I do look things up. Seems I miss the first name or some other detail.

Lots of links here:
Double Bass - Upright Bass - String Bass - Bass Viol - Bass Fiddle - Electric Upright Bass - Links Page, Courtesy of Gollihur Music - Upright Bass Specialists
Gollihur Music - Upright Bass Specialists: Instruments, Pickups, Preamps, Amplifiers, and Accessories

I know ya do!

Added Gollihur to "Source List" on pending. Thanks!

Hope you noticed Link Removed!

For anyone looking for a builder. Please note that the Link Removed has a search field.

Link Removed​

It will search for any text in the MFG and COMMENTS field. Hopefully this will make it easier to find something.

Now if I was really clever, I'd get it to search Link Removed too!

GODIN!? It's there...

I've owned five of them over the years. (Inlcuding S&P acoustics) My A4 fretless is one of my faves!

On Fullerton, can you provide some links? I keep coming up with G&L.

thanks,
terri

Yeah, don't know how I missed that one. As far as the Fullerton, I've never been able to get any info on them except that they were made by Aria. I don't think they're around anymore, so no linkage.

Okay. Thanks. I'll put them on pending. Let me know if you come across anything.

IIRC, which I probably don't, Fullertons were basically left over parts from the early(ish) Fender years and then assembled in the 80s.

From the pending list:

26. History - was mentioned but no further information - hard to search for "history bass"

History is a Japanese brand, built by Fujigen exclusively for Shimamura Music. They use "Timeless Timber", which is a proprietary name for wood reclaimed from the bottom of the Great Lakes.

This is really cool!

I added Link Removed and also cross-linked to Koll and Fano. I left it on pending so I can look for the others later.

Thanks!
