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."

"These two albums have some of Ron's best tone on the piccolo bass, in terms of both playing and recording quality (especially the latter).
Track 3 is a solo overdub, and contrary to the reviewer I believe Ron is on piccolo bass for BOTH layers of it (I doubt he even had his full-size bass in the studio that day).
Buster Williams on bass for Pick 'Em (tracks 1-6 excluding 3), Leon Maleson on bass for Super Strings (tracks 7-12)." less
