After several bridges that really didn’t sound that great, I purchased a Upton bridge blank, fitted it, and my old Kay really booms now!
Look at those ribs #flamer #uptonbass #upton #doublebass
So many basses! Basses being played, basses being tuned, basses restrung, hot-rodded, leaving the building, basses in giant crates being expertly whisked off for worldwide destinations... Sometimes our Vintage section can't keep up - if you are looking for something in particular, better to just call! Come to think of it, at the moment, there are: 5 golden Kays... 4 British Martins, 3 French guilds, 2 fine Uptons and Czech-Ease in a flight case! Bows, Preamps, Bass Bags, Wearables, and Gift Certificates for the loved ones too!

How NOT to “fix” a double bass Beatrice. #doublebass #uptonbass #uprightbass
My son has a maybe $3K flatback bass that the back supports are coming loose. Can we fix this without taking the top off? Or do we need to find a bass luthier somewhere in the wilds of Idaho?
Seen it a thousand times!!!!! friggin idiots
I am the one who made this repair. It's not gorrila glue. I use hide glue in all of my repairs. I've actually think this is a good idea. Paper is another form of wood. 🤔 Seams tend to open imho it's going to have a little harder time to open with the paper as a back up. The bass bar was off when I got it. Attached with hide glue and reinforced with paper and hide glue. When I got this bass together it sounded awesome. It projected like it was amplified. My educational is background a researcher. Hence, I took a risk. Back in the day art projects used wet paper soaked in flour and water. Hmmmm ! This paper deal is an idea worthy of discussion. I am open to ridicule, but be nice about it. Everyone has ideas that are not so popular. But let's think this one through. I've seen basses with silk/linen - why not paper? I've done this three times. My name is in one of them, because I wanted this discussion. Yes, Sam Rivers Beatrice is one of my favorite tunes. 🤗
We are SO lucky to work with so many awesome people. New friends...we wouldn’t have it any other way. #uptonbass Well I know you’re inspired...#wildheart @mrteddwane
