Re: Finger wounded

Find someone to check the action on your bass, and see if the strings can be lowered. Making it easier to play. To protect the finger, you could put a drop of super glue, and spread it thin, over the area. Let it dry hard. Might help.

Is there a trick to avoid direct contact for a time without handicap too much the ability to play ?
I heard about using a pick... (but I don't know what is it...)

Hi all,

I cut 1/2 cm my medium left finger slice with a cutter 6 months ago. Hopefully my nerves weren't touch.
BUT I'm right handed and now when I use this finger to press my bass string it hurt a lot just in the place I was cut.
I'm very frustrated not to be able to play. I'm beginner so my finger arent yet hard at the top, but taking a lot of pleasure to play.

So I'm looking for a technique to make the pain less important. Perhaps to have string bigger or less tighten or to put a protection on the finger....

Do you have an idea ?

THANKS A LOT in advance

PS/ sorry for my bad english
