    What is a double e waterfall?...Ive always wondered that..
    A Bass violin, a standup bass, is tuned so that it's
    lowest string sound "double E", third E below middle C. A double
    E waterfall is a waterfall that's so big it sounds the lowest bass
    notes instead of the tinkling upper registers or more subtly moving liquids...
    I always pictured the double E image as a standup bass too, with the S shaped sound holes looking like two waterfalls on a woman's back and the strings along her spine.
