Snap! Got this in 2011. More of a very-long-scale bass guitar that an upright at all, but very easy to play. This is way better - real double bass, only thinner and more manageable.

There you have it- a translucent blonde American original 50’s p-bass. So I like blondes too- Incoming a few days after my coming birthday-
The NS basses are great but you need to change the strings out to the orchestral ones. Way better tension and more acoustic sounding. The set they come with sucks.
The Eminence is also not a real double bass by the way. still just an electric copy of a "real double bass" ha ha.
That’s really cool, it reminds me of an old-time family portrait in the parlor on a Sunday afternoon. I relate to the P-bass who preferred to lay down and take a nap instead-Here's my non W basses
