Rare and unusual handmade Fotdella in double bass form, operated by depressing twelve brass pedals connected by wires to hammers striking strings attached to the back of the bass, 48" overall

* A Fotdella is a foot-operated string bass musical instrument. Invented and constructed by Jesse "The Lone Cat" Fuller, an American one-man band musician, who needed an accompaniment instrument beyond the usual high-hat (foot-operated cymbal) or bass drum favoured by street musicians.
