Hello all,

Do any of you bass players know if a stand up bass (3/4 size) will fit
inside a 2000 Accord Coupe?

Thank you!

Regards, Bx

The posting I wrote from home last night may not have made it through....
What I wrote is that I was able to get one into my 2004 4-door sedan. It's
probably a little bigger than a 2000 coupe, but the wide door of a coupe
might make it even easier. The passenger seat needs to be reclined, is all.
The neck goes in first, I believe, and sits on the back shelf.

Thanks Howard!

I saw your reply in the alt.autos.honda group, it came through too.

Yes, the coupe doors are longer, plus the rear seat back folds down as well.

Good to know that a bigger vehicle purchase is unnecessary when I buy the
new upright.

Best regards, Bx
