Max Bibeau and his double bass

This is Max Bibeau playing a huge Double Bass made in the 16th century. It has the most mellow sound and is bigger than normal Double Bass as you can see. With  any luck he will be taking it home so Australian audiences will be hearing him play it in future. His own instrument is a much darker colour and normal size. I find them all beautiful but this 16th century one shines from within.
