hello, long time no see. Dont forget Essential Element s for doublebass!

now lets play!

we will learn how to play G. G is 4th string.

G G G rest, G G G rest, G G G G, G G G rest(4/4 beat)

next one is F#. # means raise the note by half step.

F# is on D string, 4 position. book says you have to play with 4 fingers, but just hold string with two
left fingers and pluck it with only two fingers.

F# F# F# rest, F# F# F# rest, F# F# F# F#, F# F# F# rest

Next:

G G G rest; F# F# F# rest, G G F# F# , G F# G rest(repeat once)

It helps to say note name while playing.

several more exercises:

G G F #rest, G G F#, G G F# F#, G F# G

time to read E. This is E on D string, not 1st E string.

E E E rest, E E E rest, E E E E, E E E rest.

3 notes!

G G F# F#, E E F# rest, E E F# f#, G G G  rest(repeat)



Practice these today for now. Bye!

next time i will write how to use bow
