New Upright Bassist...Old Time Music

Howdy,

I' ve been playing my Shen 100 for less than a year now, :hiding: exclusively for old time music. I'm having lots of fun with it, trading off with 5 string banjo in jam sessions.

One question...it is very difficult to slide my endpin into its hole...maybe some light oil? wax?
