Double Bass
What should I get for a double bass pedal?

I want to learn to play double bass, and my friend has an Iron Cobra double bass pedal that’s really smooth. Pretty much double bass is the only technique I haven’t learned. I play pop rock. Should I invest in a good one now or buy a crappy one and then buy a good one once I’ve mastered it?

Hi There

Invest in a Gibralter. They are not too expensive and are really really robust and easy to play. Then you have the DW which are 30% more and, slightly better but not worth the difference in price.

your choice.

Here are three dozen pieces of music, all played by Yo-Yo Ma, culled from his extensive discography. Aside from the technical mastery and beautiful tone that are absolutes in all of his playing, one is dazzled by his curiosity and ability to adapt to so many forms and types of music. His Bach and Vivaldi are pellucid and played with non-sentimental crispness, his tango music gritty and rhythmical…
