Oh..

Ah! I watched his videos on holding the bass and left hand technique and then I got a bit carried away and started jamming. Need to watch some more, I really like how he teaches.

I feel this is a trick question! Haha Just the index on the my right hand. Is this incorrect?

Not yet no but I fear it won't be long! Picking up my Yamaha afterwards was an interesting experience. I had to readjust my brain to play with two fingers again

I just bought a EUB off of Colin. It was exactly as described and he even gave me a quick lesson on how to hold it correctly. Great guy. I'd have no worries about dealing with him again Thanks again

Thank you I'm very excited about getting better

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1408308621' post='2528915'] Looks good but autoplaying sound files when you enter the site isn't a great idea. [/quote] Scared the hell out of me. I accidentally had my headphones turned wayyy up! Ouch. I like the way it looks. I think that it needs more info and I also think that the video page looks a little bit cramped. Maybe have the page scrolling so you can have the video links the same size. Looking good though

I bought one today! Initial impressions are good! Few issues though (as always) the rest on the right that leans against your side hurts my hip. I'm not sure if it's because it's in the wrong place or because I'm too boney but it starts hurting after a while. Also my shoulder really, really aches after about 2mins of playing. Again this could be me being a weakling or because I'm holding my arm too high or what. I've watched the Geoff Chalmers videos with his beginner tips and have adjusted the bass to where he says. In line with the eyebrow while leant against you etc. I don't know but I will stick at it! It's awesome!

I'm unsure about the short scale thing but you could always make use of more open strings something I fail to do almost all of the time!

Welcome and hello!

At that money talk to a luthier and get one made.

Good luck! It'll be fun!

Out of interest has anybody used a bow with a stagg? One of the main reasons I want to start playing double bass is for that reason. It has a certain draw for me. I can't afford a proper double bass atm unfortunately.

If only I weren't so far away!

Fair enough, my bad.

I like that! The only thing that worries me is that the little button catch things (don't know the proper name sorry) have no save if they fail?

Ah thank you very much!

Hello and welcome

[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1387314293' post='2310675'] sooooo, as much as i my TRB i am now in need of repair/replace the jack socket [b]again![/b] [/quote] So I'm now eating my words. Mine has recently started making really loud crackles every now and then and I know it's not the lead. Can I ask where you got your replacement please?

Woahh.. Nice one!

Bought a couple of Korg USB items off of Ivan. Great communication, quick delivery, well packed. Would buy again with no worries. Thanks again Mike
