lets just say a couple people decided to go to europe, wear all black and not speak to anyone and sing blues in smokey bars Would you bring a violin or and upright bass????
you are such a liar! You never said cello see, this is why I'm going to europe and not speaking to anyone, men
Do you really want a bunch of baggage clerks handling your $5000 contrabass? A viola with a nice pickup + a pedalboard of effects = 2 carry-ons. Bon voyage!
