| Thanks Chaz! As bassists we do have to deal with a higher action then we'd like to…. especially playing orchestral bass because you don't want the strings to buzz on the fingerboard when your pounding out some spiccato. My advice in the upper register is to learn to use your relaxed left arm weight to your advantage to help you really make sure that string is closed down but in a relaxed state. The right arm advice is to experiment with your bow placement, bow speed, and bow weight to get the sound you want. For the high register I like to bow pretty close to the bridge, faster bow speed, with enough weight to pull out a complex tone(from partials) It's hard to describe this stuff by typing an email but I hope it helps with the double bass practice!
