Hi and welcome to my blog!
I'll be posting here to share some of my journey as I learn the double bass, working through equipment, practicing and performing issues. I also want to create a clearinghouse for the beginner upright bass player, especially those like me, who are making the transition from electric bass guitar to upright bass, from popular to classical music, from being self-taught, to taking formal training.
When I started taking lessons at the beginning of September, 2010, I had no idea that there was so much to learning and eventually mastering the double bass. I'll post the story of my first few lessons soon, but for now I'll just welcome you to this world of bass playing! Thanks for dropping by. You can subscribe to my posts, and if you like, use my affiliate site for Amazon. It puts a little coin toward that future carved upright I know I'll be buying and is no extra cost to you!
God Bless and play on!
