Fake news
The great story that Ford made aluminium double basses that were dropped in the war zone during world war two, is a myth. There are more of these stories going round. I also heard the story that during the Vietnam war Ampeg baby basses were used in the frontline. This is probably fake news to.
This is a small part of an article on Aluminum Upright basses.
This excerpt makes me want to know what are the other myths surrounding the world of basses and has anyone seen or played an aluminum bass?
Thanks
