Hi there

I was just reading another post that talked about octocontrabass. Wow! I've never even heard of it before, but I'd love to play one (I'm a fan of bass instruments as you can see). Has anyone ever played one? I'd imagine it would be quite big and have to rest on the floor...

I very much doubt that anyone on these forums has... laugh.gif

"There was apparently only one BBBb octocontrabass ever built, and it is now in the personal collection of Mr. Leblanc himself...I've yet to find even a recording of one."

I think the odds on me ever playing an octocontrabass are about the same as me spotting the Fleet Air Armed Force of Flying Pigs flying above London laugh.gif
