Martin Ruggeri 5-String Double Bass: Played by Tom

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

The Strings we use on our Modern Day Double Bass (this is also true for the Violin, Viola, & Cello) are Flatwound Strings, that is Flat Ribbons of various Metals wound around a Steel/Nylon Core to give the String its final gauge.

Thank you for playing some of the most incredible sounds I've ever heard! I just recently bought my first electric bass (at 36 yo) and I want to move over to double bass immediately. The bass notes on this thing are the stuff of my dreams! 😍😍😍😍😍

We all need more SubContra notes! I have to use Subharmonics to get there singing. Able to do a G0 in the morning. Chest voice is good to go down to D#1 or D1. Sub-Bass instruments are the best!

That b must be felt through the floor ! I wonder what the price of such a fine instrument as this would be ......

I was hearing it go lower than that.

Thomas & George Martin Violin Makers The Low B on a 5 String Upright Bass just "Booms" & it makes transposing even easier especially in Church Gigs.

Definitely! Being able to play Eb on the B string is a game changer!

Your playing is just beautiful sir! I want to get into upright bass.
