Double Bass Hiring an NS EUB in the UK?

[orm-irian]

Hi, new here. Does anyone know where I can hire an NS EUB in the UK for a month?

I finally have the funds to get one of these, but I've not played upright bass before and need to make sure my mutant right hand is up to the job before I splash out a couple of grand or so.

I'm going for this because I've recently become a wheelchair user, and I'm confident I can still play this sat in my chair. I tried a traditional upright bass some years ago, but I'm missing some muscles in my right side and couldn't manage the, erm, reacharound factor.

You will need to adjust the stand to get it low enough to play in a chair. There has been some discussion about this in the NS thread. Best of luck.

Not an issue, I'll be using a spike not the stand.
