Okay, let's be honest...

...the double bass is not a new instrument.
Take a look at a double bass.

You won't find effects pedals, or an electronic tuner attached to the top of it. 

It's a big, physical instrument that is not for sissies.

It has two different bows - well, there's a choice!

You have to be reasonably fit to take it to a gig.

Sound too hard for you?

Well, you might want to try one of these instruments...

Good for people with a low

IQ or no musical ability.

Easy to carry. You can make the after concert party

while the rhythm section is still packing up.

You'll be playing at home with this one but,

at least, the below fives at your house will

enjoy blowing it too. Wash it out before 

you practise.

Actually, probably best to avoid this

one if you want to keep your friends.

You won't read much about electric guitars, synthesisers or glam rock bands on this blog.

When you venture over here your mind will be challenged in a more old style way.

Pop by and enjoy.
