Trying to learn double bass. Very frustrating, seems like I'm learning a whole new instrument. Although, I've had some success over the first 6 months - showing some improvement from when I first sat down to do this for the first time.
I have been working with a couple of books that are out there that teach you to play a double bass groove along with some cymbal pattern in the right hand. What I'm interested to know from all you well versed double bass guys - how long does it take before you can comfortably play solo patterns with your hands while your feet are doing something different, - say even just 16ths or triplets going at the same time?
