That DB is a piece of shite. He bought it for £50 in about 1993 I think. It was an ex school one and had a hole kicked in it. The sound posts were loose, the bridge was broken and it has huge splits in the side. It was the most gutless and underwhelming instrument ever. He's spent years variously ignoring it, playing it, fettling it generally trying to polish the the turd. It's currently stripped for a refinish having had all the cracks repaired. It still sounds rubbish. But hey! it's still a double bass right?
It's on most of my old band's recordings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF3aI0VI5lY

Looks like heaven to me! One day I'll have a double bass...
