Description: 1962 Morelli/Saumer Double Bass 3/4 size, but on the smaller side Bright, punchy sound String length: approx 42 1/4” Recording sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjI2-DoUCzM [jump to 36:20 mark and use headphones] This is an excellent bass for a serious student or for a professional wanting a second bass for gigging. I’m a professional musician, and this bass got me through high school and into top undergraduate classical bass programs (IU, CCM, etc.). After purchasing a professional-level orchestral bass, I’ve used this one for jazz gigs. It’s punchy sound makes for an excellent jazz bass. Note the cracked neck, which was professionally repaired long before I acquired it in 2001 and has posed no problems since. This also makes it an affordable option for the quality of the instrument. The bass is very easy and enjoyable to play. It comes with a soft case, which is in excellent condition. It is currently strung with jazz strings. I’m happy to provide videos/recordings of me playing it for those with serious interest. I’m also happy to negotiate a discounted bow with purchase. Located in the Lansing, MI area.
