While the double bass of the violin family has been around for hundreds of years it wasn't until 1935 that the bass guitar made it's debut in the music world, crafted by Paul Tutmark of Seattle Washington. Mexico's traditional music features several types of acoustic bass guitars, the Guitarron, a very large, deep-bodied, 6-string acoustic bass guitar played in Mariachi bands, the Leon, plucked by a pick, and the bajo quinto and bajo sexto with five and six pairs of strings respectively. Further developments of Acoustic bass guitar occurred in the 1960's and 70's, chiefly by the Ernie Ball Co., to help define the instruments that we know today.
All of our acoustic bass guitars are shop-adjusted by our in-house luthier prior to purchase to assure you of a great playing instrument right out of the case!

Primordial and Beautiful
The skins are as beautiful as can be expected. I'll be using them for canvas in an art project in 2026. I'll be a returning customer.

The Boneshaker is awesome!
I bought this 30 inch frame drum about 3 years ago (2022 I think) for use in drum circles and also for recording. It’s incredible! I wanted a drum that people could not just hear, but also feel. This one fulfills that promise very powerfully, so I call it the Boneshaker. I’ve gotten a ton of compliments about it at drum circles. It helps to hold the rhythm together very well. By playing the drum harmonics, I can find at least 3 tones to it, more depending on how I tune it. I’ve had dozens of drums and over a hundred percussion instruments over the years, but this is in the top 1% of my all time favorites. I even painted the head and it’s beautiful! Everyone at the drum circles loves it.

Broke my more decorative drum protesting
I bought this bodhran after I broke my more decorative one while protesting. I’m one of four women who are Drumming for Democracy every week at our local Saturday protest.

It's a Beauty
The DG-255 I received from Lark in the Morning was easily as beautiful as presented. The padded gig bag is a huge plus as well.
The guitar is a solid and has a bigger, more forward sound than I'd anticipated which suits me just fine. It plays easily, surely even more so after I have a guitar tech get it set up for me.
Nice people, excellent service, quick shipping. Nothing not to like here.

Great Whistle and Super Fast Shipping
This whistle has a beautiful, warm tone and is very responsive. I have used a variety of whistles (including other Kerry whistles), and this one is my favorite to play. While recording my latest album, I needed a whistle in this key pretty quickly, and Lark in the Morning had this delivered to me within a few days. I highly recommend this instrument, and Lark in the Morning is a fantastic place to purchase from with excellent customer service.
