  • That's a good analogy for keeping the hand relaxed. I'll have to try that out myself with students!

  • Great to hear that these are helping! Check out the Contrabass Conversations website for more content like this.

  • @willyager Thanks so much, I figure I have justification for buying a bass now, especially if bassists are limited to that little time playing.. Now I just need to string the money together, if you'll excuse the pun hahah hohohahehh!!!....

    There's a reason I'm not paid to do comedy.

  • ha ha ... have had a bass on loan from a friend who moved country for almost a year now (i'm a guitarist)

    after watching this vid made my first bass bow noises that had a vaguely musical quality to them ...

    your detailed discussion of hand positions is really helpful too ...

  • talk too much

  • hi i have been watching great bassist playing.i want play much better than today ,what have to do,kindly tell me.

  • If I was dangling on a cliff and only had my right hand to keep me alive, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have curve, relaxed fingers.

    Hehe great video, thanks a lot :)

  • At ;ast, someone who can articulate what they want to teach. Thanks for the video!

  • @willyager

    have the kid stand on an orange crate.

  • It's...it's the infamous lionhead scroll...i wanna touch it.

  • The Worst part of playing the bass is getting the money to buy a proper one!

  • cool
