I’m just about to reach my three year anniversary learning and playing the double bass. I asked myself some of the questions beginner-me would have liked to know the answers to when just starting out.

A year ago I decided on a little bit of a whim to give learning the double bass a try.  What began as a curiosity quickly hooked me, and suddenly I was in a very serious and committed relationship with the most difficult instrument I have ever attempted to play.
