piccolo string bass by Olarin

"A listing of all the jazz I've found on eMusic which employs the acoustic piccolo bass, a custom instrument designed for jazz bassists to use as a lead instrument.

Does not include fourth-tuned cello work such as that by Harry Babasin and Oscar Pettiford - see my jazz cello list for those titles."

Buster Williams on bass for Pick 'Em (tracks 1-6 excluding 3), Leon Maleson on bass for Super Strings (tracks 7-12)." less
