Simandl Books for Double Bass have been the standard books that I hear most people have trained from (Including me).A few other books I would recommend are, Solos in the Thumb Position Michael Moore, Solos for the Double Bass, Those books will be more than enough to chew on! (ah heh, heh, heh!)

Charles that's a nice series I distillate you have there.  Simandl is a great book for double bass, I spent about two years studying out of that book in my younger years, and got tons of goodness out of that, cheers from a son to be alembic owner;).   ...........B.

This ones on it's way to the mothership, and then Brian's casa! Dude really does have an awesome, amazing wife. I talked at length with her and he is one lucky guy. Thanks for the Simandl tip Charlie, someday i hope to check his books out but for now it's the Rabbath Method as that is what my teacher has goin on. I have no sight reading skills YET, so I am starting from the beginning playing mostly arco so i can get my intonation going on :-}... This is a very humbling instrument to learn. -Bear

So she showed up at 2:00 this afternoon,  I just finally put her down for a second,  All I can say is wow!!! What is not to like about this bass.  Pictures did not do her justice,  Thank you care-takers for keeping her in such great condition,   I feel very fortunate for my first Alembic,  She's coming to bed tonight=)
