Considering I haven't had a lesson yet I won't be touching any in public as I won't know what I'm doing! Quote
jakenewmanbass Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1323602309' post='1464804'] Didya get one? Didya? Didya? [/quote] Sit down Bilbo, there's a good boy, I'm sure the nice man will tell us all about it when he's ready Quote
danweb22 Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) yes I have one! A 3/4 czech, seems nice but having never played one before I am no expert! lol First impressions were blimey it's big and heavy! Really have to give it a good pull on the strings for pizz (A and E strings, G and D are much easier ) Came with a bow as well so been having a play with that, I think I prefer the bowed sound to my fingers. Currently just doing some half position stuff and getting frustrated with my intonation! I also find sitting and playing rather than standing at the moment as I find it easier to put pressure on the fingerboard with my left hand Edited December 11, 2011 by danweb22 Quote
