Measurements:
Dealers in Boston, CT, NYC, and upstate NY have all contacted me and offered to sell the bass for between 18-24K. Contact me before I decide to sell it through a dealer.
I recently loaned the bass out to Robb Aistrup, who commented:
“Hi Jim, Thanks for letting me play the Arvi. I took it on some gigs and the bass was so easy to play. I played it on one gig that was a chamber orchestra and it really filled the space and held up the bottom end of the orchestra well. I received many compliments. The bass has such great response and evenness on all the strings and the upper end has a beautiful full sound. Thanks again, Robb Aistrup." Bass teacher, Intensive Community Project of the Boston Youth Symphony and active Boston area freelancer. Formerly, Associate Principal Double Bass with the Orquesta Sinfonica de Tenerife in Spain, and section, Louisiana Philharmonic, Kansas City Symphony.
