I play fingerstyle

Hello,

My name is Staf Wouters and I have been playing bass for almost 1 and a half year now.

My gear: Ibanez gsr 200 and Ibanez swx65 bass amplifier.

My dream: To become a good bassist and to have some nice gig's I just love the bass

My limitations: probably got Raynaud's syndrome, whenever I play fast songs, or slap a while, ma right hand turns purpisch and gets heavy, less accurate. Still looking for a way to solve it :s.

Well, bass playing became part of my life, it got me through some less pleasant moments I'm life (though I'm just 16).

So, hello evryone ))

Greetz,
Staf W.

Thanks for the replies .
I went to a doctor and he said that I had Raynaud's. But still, I'm worried about the fact that the problem with my right hand has little to do with the temperature of the environment, anyways, I'm going back again soon.

Cheers,
Me

Hello community,

I just registered and this is my first post =).
Well, let's get straight to the point.
Whenever I play fast songs (like coffee shop - rhcp, and so on...) My right hand turns purple after a while, and I get less accurate and slowed down. And my hand feels tense.
I have Raynaud's syndrome.

-My first question: is it really Raynaud's? I mean, my right hand turns purple in warm environments too, when playing fast songs.
-Any tips? What should I do about it?
- Will it limit my playing a lot? I kinda love playing the bass, it's kinda part of my life :s.
- Should I just take another instrument ( like guitar ).

Thanks for reading,
Me
