Five String Pöllmann Double Bass 1974 – E.M. Poellmann Contrabass, LH

Pöllmann Double Bass 1974, Five String, Left Handed E.M. Poellmann Contrabass No. 61 3/4 Ser. No. 536
Can be reconfigured to right-handed by Upton Bass.

This Five String Pollmann from the early 70s is a rare instrument. An early shop built 5 string, also constructed as a lefty. Highly ornamented and beautiful old-growth woods, typical of this classic German maker. This bass was probably built under the supervision of 3rd generation maker Gunter Pollmann. A unique vintage double bass.

Please Note: This bass can be reconfigured as a right handed instrument for the next owner. It is priced under the market equivalent of a right-handed five string Pollmann. We can relocate the bass bar to do the job properly and reconfigure the setup. So if you are looking for a fine symphony, chamber music or jazz 5-string, this may fit the bill. Please contact Eric at the shop to learn more about the possibilities of this classic bass!
