We know one double bass that had the same set of strings for over twenty years. Bows need rehairing from time to time, and need coarser hair than the others, but this should still not cost more than Â£15 - Â£20. Double bass bows need a special kind of rosin, coarser than that used by violinists or 'cellists.
By industry standards, the standard floor-to-countertop height is 36â (3â-0â). If you are remodeling your kitchen and buying pre-built base cabinets (34 Â½â standard), this will be the height they fit into by most manufacturersâ standards.
While there are no hard and fast height standards for bars and bar stools, there are some general guidelines. Standard bar heights are 40 and 42 inches from the floor. This is slightly higher than countertop height, which is generally 34 to 36 inches above the floor.
