My arms get tired!

[Klown]

When I'm playing my bass guitar and I'm not sure how I can fix this I have tried lifting weights and punching a punchbag but nothing seems to help.

When I was younger I broke both of my arms in an accident with a milk float and I had to have extensive arm surgery to help fix my damaged ligaments I was wondering whether this might be having an effect on my arms getting tired?

Thanks in advance. :thumb:

[Richi]

It's entirely possible, but I'm sure every bassist out there has had that problem. I know I did. Best thing to do is just keep playing. Stop if you feel any pain though. That is the most important thing. Play through the tiredness, push yourself to a new limit. The SECOND you feel pain, stop.

[edgebass5]

Raising my strap height a couple years ago completely remedied this problem for me.

[PsychoTronn]

Raising my strap height a couple years ago completely remedied this problem for me.

yeah that can help

I've tried playing to my absolute limit before but my elbows always swell up like baseballs afterwards and I need to put ice packs on them and take some painkillers and then I can't play for a couple of days so I feel it really cancels out all the practise I put in you see?

Raising my strap height a couple years ago completely remedied this problem for me.
I tried raising my strap but then my friends said it wasn't as cool as when I had my strap lower down like in the Blink 182 video where Travis has his strap really low down the one from their second newest album? I'm not sure about playing with my strap high it makes me look really geeky and my bandmates wont like that since they all play cool with their straps low.

Thanks for the advice keep it coming. :thumb:

Playing awesome > playing round your knees.

:smash:

[Richi]

Yeah first of all...to hell with what your bandmates think of your image. Play your bass at a height that's comfortable for you.

Given the swelling information, I'd go to a doctor about it. He'd be more qualified to make an accurate diagnosis than any of us(unless, of course, someone here is extremely knowledgable about this kinda thing).

[BassVirtuoso]

What the hell is a milk float?

[Richi]

It's a cart that milkmen/women drive around. It carries milk.

At least, that's what I think it is.

[fatbandit]

That just reminded my of Death By Milkfloat :p I really need to download that.

Anyway. A milk float is an electric thing that milkmen deliver milk on o_O I can't believe I just had to explain that! :|

Anyway, on another note, plenty of people play high and look cool. Timmy C for one.

:smash:

[BassVirtuoso]

Hold on...there are still milk men?

[Richi]

It would appear so. Either that or he was attacked by a milk float that went crazy after hearing that it'd be taken apart, melted down and used to build shody cutlery or something.

[fatbandit]

I'm not sure there's any milkfloats left - all the Sinclair C5 engines seem to have ended up in robots on Robot Wars o_O

:smash:

[kilian]

See A Doctor.

[Klown]

Playing awesome > playing round your knees.

:smash:

Um well you need to look cool to play awesome you can't play awesome if you don't look cool.
Yeah first of all...to hell with what your bandmates think of your image. Play your bass at a height that's comfortable for you.
But all my bandmates are cool and play their guitars at a low height and smoke too and I don't want to be the odd one out playing my bass up really high.
Given the swelling information, I'd go to a doctor about it. He'd be more qualified to make an accurate diagnosis than any of us(unless, of course, someone here is extremely knowledgable about this kinda thing).
I think it's just swelling of my bone membrane although I could be wrong I don't think it does any permenant damage but it means I can't play a show for longer than an hour or so.
What the hell is a milk float?
It's like a flat open van with milk on the back of it I don't know why it's called a milk "float" because it probably wouldn't float, they are slow but have crushing wheels.

**** them. Seriously. If they just care about image you don't want to play with them. You shouldn't have to wear your strap above your waist for punk-rock music (I get the feeling that is what you play?), but then only thing that should determine strap height is comfort. Raise it up if it makes you feel better playing, and if they have an issue with it tell them that either you wear your strap how you want or you will go find some real musicians to play with.

[bassist1989]

Anyway, on another note, plenty of people play high and look cool. Timmy C for one.

:smash:

123

and that ASTONISHING bass solo which sheehan did, and then did an amazing battle with paul gilbert and than into 'addicted to that rush' was all done up high

[Richi]

Um well you need to look cool to play awesome you can't play awesome if you don't look cool.

Have you ever seen Victor Wooten play? He looks like a right tool at times but he can play ridiculously awesome.

But all my bandmates are cool and play their guitars at a low height and smoke too and I don't want to be the odd one out playing my bass up really high.

Why do you care what they think of you? What good is it doing you? By letting their thoughts on you affect what you do, you're limiting yourself.

[Jimbobntnr]

**** them. Seriously.
I'm going to quote that, but with a nastier tone.

unless you want to get a new hobby, go ahead and raise the strap and see a doctor about the swelling.

I hope you aren't serious, because I sense a little bit of sarcasm here. Either way, you sound like a ****ing tool.

I play pretty kickass with my bass up at my chest. I might look a little geeky, but I can play circles around someone with their bass at their knees.

[bleeding_fingers]

If you're going to ask us for advice, then not listen to it, go back to the pit. Either raise your strap up, or deal with the pain of looking cool.

[Bigga]

I agree. Couldnt have said it any better.:thumb:

[o b s]

This has got to be a joke.

[Raiven]

Fashion > Function

[funkyhoney]

so why exactly does having your bass low make you look cool? IMO you look like more of a dickhead trying to play around your knees then up at your chin.

looking like a knob = being a musician

[Az_Holl]

I think Timmy C is a happy medium.

Theres Jaco high.

Theres Paul Simonon low.

And then theres Timmy.

Its the combination of looks and playabilty.

[Klown]

**** them. Seriously. If they just care about image you don't want to play with them. You shouldn't have to wear your strap above your waist for punk-rock music (I get the feeling that is what you play?)
Um no I play some nu-metal like Metallica and Linkin Park and also some jazz too and I'm pretty darn good at it.
Raise it up if it makes you feel better playing, and if they have an issue with it tell them that either you wear your strap how you want or you will go find some real musicians to play with.
Well I need to feel cool playing and raising it would make me feel uncool so that would make me feel bad playing so you see I must have it low.
Have you ever seen Victor Wooten play? He looks like a right tool at times but he can play ridiculously awesome.
Isn't he the former drummer for Marilyn Manson? What the hell does he have to do with playing bass get back on topic you idiot Marilyn Manson is sick he eats kittens on stage I don't see how he has anything to do with my problem.
Why do you care what they think of you? What good is it doing you? By letting their thoughts on you affect what you do, you're limiting yourself.
If they don't like me then I might get kicked out of our band we are going to be recording some stuff soon at a recording studio and it's very important to me.

unless you want to get a new hobby, go ahead and raise the strap and see a doctor about the swelling.
I'll try and get an appointment with an doctor but they are usually busy whenever I call, is maybe this is just something that everyone goes through? It will go away by itself?
Travis is the drummer.
Uh no he isn't I think I know Blink 182 better than you. :thumb:
I hope you aren't serious, because I sense a little bit of sarcasm here. Either way, you sound like a ****ing tool.

what does your skill have to do with this?

Well I need to feel cool playing and raising it would make me feel uncool so that would make me feel bad playing so you see I must have it low.
why? do you have some kind of infeiriority complex?

Isn't he the former drummer for Marilyn Manson? What the hell does he have to do with playing bass get back on topic you idiot Marilyn Manson is sick he eats kittens on stage I don't see how he has anything to do with my problem.
no, he is one of the best bassists in the world in many peoples opinions at the moment and as far an my knowledge goes has never had any musical contact with manson, or ever drummed for any band.

If they don't like me then I might get kicked out of our band we are going to be recording some stuff soon at a recording studio and it's very important to me.
they won't like you because you wear your bass at a level which wont't cause your wrist won't **** itself over? sound like great bandmates.

I'll try and get an appointment with an doctor but they are usually busy whenever I call, is maybe this is just something that everyone goes through? It will go away by itself?
i don't believe swelling is a normal part of using your hand to push on some strings

Sorry to interupt the bitching session but a quick one on Victor Wooten, he is a freaky funk bassist/solo artists who has also played with dave matthews band and bela fleck, he has never had anything to do with marilyn manson and he is not a drummer.

long story short, if you play with your bass around your ankles like a tool, you're going to hurt you're wrist, it's happend to many bassists and guitarists, don't come bitching to us when you get carpal tunnel. either raise your strap and stop being a baby and thinking you need to "look cool", or see a doctor.

[o b s]

Klown, you should play through the pain, play as hard as you can and if the pain gets too much try to get hold of some Diacetylmorphine, it'll help. Keep this up for a few months and you should be just fine.

if it hurts to play the bass then give it up because bass is for real musicians and you are just a faggot

[Jimbobntnr]

Klown, we're just kidding you. You should play through the pain, at least two hours beyond the pain, and then when you get the swelling you should lance them with a sterile knife. Just run the knife under hot water for like 15 seconds and then pierce the skin to let the fluids out.

Good luck, buddy.

I will hurt your ****ing face bass is the best instrument there is and I am good at it, maybe not as good as Travis Barker but I am still good enough to be called a bassist I'm just getting annoyed at all these posers trying to "flame me" on the internet they probably can't even play at all.
