Beautiful basses, fantastic craftsmanship and thank you for the video and hope you do more like this. Maybe next time she can show you her process of making a custom double bass from start to finish.

I watched the video on my cell phone and without headphones and even so the instrument sounded incredibly wonderful.🤯

Wonderful interview. And that sound!!!!

[@DiscoverDoubleBass]

Thank you. I couldn’t believe how it sounded after only 9 days. Magnus is a lucky man!

[@SimonWojcik1]

Wow. Beautiful tone on that bass and the wide grain on the top looks amazing.

[@DiscoverDoubleBass]

Yes, it was so good in person. It's one of my all-time favourite instruments and it suits Magnus' style perfectly.

Another great video I especially enjoy the videos with luthiers ,very important to find a good luthier and develop a good relationship with.

[@DiscoverDoubleBass]

That's a great point. A good relationship with a luthier is invaluable.

I’m starting playing a double bass, just for fun, after retiring from work. This process of crafting and building this huge instrument is fascinating. Excellent video.

[@DiscoverDoubleBass]

That's great to hear. Congrats on your retirement and enjoy the journey with your double bass! It's a wonderful thing. :-)

Excellent video! What's your opinion on a 5 string upright against a 4 string. Is a five string good for playing Jazz music?

[@Oscaraha]

I dont know any jazz bass player that prefer the five string in a jazz setting, i dont think the b-string will cut through with ordinary pizz.

[@DiscoverDoubleBass]

I agree that 5 strings with low B are very rare in jazz. I much prefer a 4 string double bass for jazz. For orchestral playing they are a great option, especially if they have a good set up.

[@1matandaT]

5 strings with a high C for jazz, not so common but it's a thing.

[@Totalyrediclous998]

There's a Seattle player E-C tuned. I think mostly you have to have the hands and the bass has to be set up.
