budoberdas Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Hi there ! Finaly decided to activate myself here š¤ My name is Damir Iāve started to play bass long time a go , and still trying š Iāam also play āberde ā - bass tambura, our national instrument - look a Like double bass but with freeted neck , that comes on body strait above , not like on doublebass on angle ( if you reed me ) and we play it with a huge 3 inch pick ! ( there some pitures to see what is it all about ) Changed a ton of basses : from old Fenderās p and j to MM Stingray , Fujigen , Neuser , Tobias , Lakland , Maruszczyk etc š . Currently have Flea signature jb So , it is nice to be here ! Edited November 1, 2017 by budoberdas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Welcome Damir. It is interesting to hear about and see the bass tambura. I wasn't aware of it before but it sounds interesting. Although I play fretless electric bass sometimes I find double bass hard to intonate. Maybe the bass tambura would help in training to play uprights where it is needed most, up to the 12th fret. What does a three inch plectrum look like and how do you hold it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
