Bass Bib

[Roger Mouton]

I bought one from Barrie Kolstein at LA '88. Many moons ago. Still own it. I had a seamstress sew a small thin strap on it so that it stays put and doesn't flop around. A few years back I was in Hammond Ashley's shop in Seattle (before they moved it) and they offered a nice one made out of soft corduroy, with a strap already sewn on. I use both. Ashley's was made by a local seamstress. As noted in a previous post, Bob Golihur sells Barrie's bib.

Not everybody uses four cakes of rosin during one rehearsal.

Are you mocking my nylon bow hair?

 

[Paul Warburton]

No, just sayin'.
Rosin powder doesn't go all that well on Walnut.

 

[Don Higdon]

That's better. My bow hair comes from Siberian refineries. The best.

Hey Bassists,
My wife hand-crafts bass bibs. She started making them a couple of months ago. She has sold several and has just completed 6 more. They are one-of-a-kind. The choice of material varies with each one. She has pictures available. If you would like more information contact me thru this website.
Thanks.

I'll be in touch. She OK with slimy chicken skins?

You are SO my hero, Warburton. There ain't nothing better than good ignorance when it is displayed, especially on a regular basis.
