    Double Bass Left thumb pain

    I've been playing upright for about 8 months right now, it's going well. When I play walking bass lines for more than 5 minutes straight, my left thumb starts to hurt. With songs that have more rests in between the notes this happens much less, it's the consistent motion that's hardest to...

    I've seen a lot of talk about palm muting, using a sponge, or using the other fingers on the left hand. Just experimenting and noodling I've found I can get a sort of muted sound by just playing right on, or even slightly in front of, the fret with my fretting finger. If I can get good at this...

The heel dimensions seem to match the neck pocket (around 60mm) and the screw configuration appears...
