Hello fellow bassists and educators, Peter Tambroni here from MostlyBass.com.
Having problems getting your students to keep their left fingers curved? Try telling them to imagine they are holding a soda can! Have them hold an imaginary can in the air – it’s almost always a perfect bass hand – and then transfer this to the bass.
To strengthen their fingers have them squeeze a stress ball – with perfectly curved fingers of course!
