Welcome to /c/guitars! Let's show off our new guitar pics, ask questions about playing, theory, luthier-ship, and more!
Please bring all positive vibes to the community and leave the toxic stuff elsewhere.
Rules:
Treat others with respect. ALL others.
No spam
No self promotion
No NSFW
No circle jerk posts, there are other places for that silliness, and they are wonderful. Not here.
If you need inspiration to push through dexterity shortcomings on bass just watch Tal Wilkenfeld and try to adopt some of her techniques. She's got small hands and plays unbelievably well. She does a lot of sliding to avoid stretches.
@AstralPath @TheInsane42 His DVD with Tal on bass is fantastic.

Thanks, that is a good tip. She shifts a lot and hold her thumb not in the middle of the neck, but more at the bottom to get the reach. That helps a lot. (was trying the latter myself, with limited success, need more practice)
