...fight your way through an unruly mob?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

My Kerry Low D is fairly solid and light so it would act nicely as a blugeon, quick and strong. Plus, it can be replaced rather readily.

Hrm, my copper serpent would make a decent whupass stick. Be better if I got a Low D though.

I would say a Generation high G playing the high reel. If that didn't part the way quick enough just alternate playing and using the George Carlin trick of saying loudly "I'm gonna be sick". The Carlin method works wonderfully.

A Howard low D. Or if you need more reach, an Overton. There's more than one way to play a low D.

A Shaw low D is fairly stable and great for a long reach jab, while the high E makes a nice short dagger.

Little black. I'd tell the mob that it was Andrea Corr's-And that she was coming along anytime now to collect it, thus giving me time to make a hasty exit!

An Overton Bass A, lovingly referred to by our Praise Band at church as, "The GM Instrument," since it looks like something from the underside of a truck.

Great weight, long reach, and the act of using it as a club might warm it up enough to play it...

The VS is good for small mobs of 50 or fewer, but if it's a big 'un, better get a Tunable Steel Serpent Low D - 14.5 ounces of steel an' brass, 22-3/4" long. Take some purty healthy body armor to stop that one!

The obvious choice would be my Overton Low D, but I ain't ABOUT to risk that!

I'd just quickly tape the holes on my Susato Dublin Low D and fill it with sand or an otherwise useless fluid - Budweiser, perhaps.
