My wrists are generally fine and I never had a serious problem through an entire year of jazz bass play. Recently, however, I've been getting pretty bad pain, and I think I can pare the possibilities to a particular pain producing passage.
I think I must be doing my pull-offs wrong in this one particular passage of a piece I'm preparing, because out of everything I've been practicing lately, this is the one that hurts the most to play post-injured wrist.
----454--
--5----5-
---------
3--------
where each "-" counts as a 16th note at 120 bpm and the 3 is fretted and allowed to ring through the whole section
Any suggestions on how I can play this in a way that has less impact on my wrist?
