  22. pps234 says:

    George

  24. BassLessonsOnline says:

    Yes, it took me 3 months of solid practice (and I still can’t do it properly unless I refresh my skills :-(

    George

  25. BassLessonsOnline says:

    If you are looking at the strings, try not to. We can usually feel it better than see it (the string spacing, that is).
