   - Michael Rubin is right! Suzuki SDB-29 (2-octave double bass)
   - Ken Hildebrand is right! Brendan Power SliderBass Conversion
      - Ken is right again! I converted over 20 basses in the USA while
      Brendan still had parts available.
      - Sadly, SliderBass conversion kits are no longer available.
