2023 Rubner “Walther” bass
$7500
Another fully carved instrument from the Rubner workshop. This has an antiqued red finish and looks great with a bit of maple flame wood figure in the back and sides. Some dimensions:
- lower bout width 26 1/4″
- upper bout width 19 1/4″
- rib depth at lower block 7 15/16″
- rib depth at upper block 7″
- length of back 44 1/2″
- string length 41″
This is a good bass with a punchy pizz. sound and nice projection with the bow. We installed a new East African ebony fingerboard and the setup feels great. Complete with with New Harmony carbon endpin, adjustable Despiau bridge and Pirastro Evah Pirazzi weich strings.
