using pick at this time, fingering stamina is pretty low 😛

That's different than me then, I get blisters every time I test songs for a new week but no stamina problems. Last year when I played bass every week I had callouses on the right hand, now I just have pain. I still won't use a pick on bass tho.

haha nice, i tried to persist with finger style but when playing sitting down the angle on my right hand wrist is not optimal and starts hurting when playing too many notes, so i choose pick to avoid the injury.. tho i do wanna get better at finger picking!

Thanks for new championship!

yea, you need to lift your elbow to keep the wrist straight. It's uncomfortable at first, but you get used to it after a while.

not too bad

 

 

 

nice and hard rhy mc

 

 

 

lead

lil correction there, it´s (9) rather than (10)  solo has sweep pickings that can be learned by the masters quite ok i think, later part of the solo is almost easy, and it´s not too long.

 

 

 

 

thanks for choosing this song its fun as hell
