Hi I'm fairly new to double bass, I just finished the hal Leonard bass book, and wondering what songs you recommend I should learn first. I play guitar so I have some good knowledge of the bass and my fingers are used to the fingering techniques if that helps. Thanks a lot!

This is strange, I just took it apart and noticed, its a pretty tight fit? The hole it's self is drilled at a slight angle for some reason causing the endpin to tilt. I also did notice that the hole opens up a bit at the end which gives the cork a bit a space to move. Is this much more serious?

I looked inside and it doesn't seem to be cracked, just a poor fit, and the distortion is not an illusion, that's just how it seems to be I guess. So judging that its just being a poor fit, should I be worried with it pulling out? I'm fairly new to bass

I just bought this DB and I noticed it has a bent endpin post where the tailpiece is looped around, should be worried about it? Im afraid it's going to rip out and reck it.
