JakeBrownBass Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Hey, as i begin my journey of this amazing instrument, i wouldnt mind some help on the way. So here are acouple of questions 1. Is there any recommendations of a good teacher in or around the surrounding area of huddersfield (west yorkshire). 2. My bass of choice is the Bassix Bassmaster eub bass that was for sale here. Now I want to learn piz & arco, is this bass going to be suitable? 3. If it is suitable, can anyone recommend a cheapish bow to get me started. and finally, 4. Any good warmup exercises? Cheers guys Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sa DB newbie myself, I do not feel equipped to answer your queries but these issues are covered in various places there - have a scan through and you will find all sorts of goodies. Good luck in your efforts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairobill Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Could you part-ex your EUB for an acoustic? I would strongly recommend learning to play upright on an acoustic. The EUB is a cool thing but is quite a different instrument to an acoustic bass, especially in terms of developing the technique required to get a good sound out of it.
