Already have you covered.View attachment 3824765 Well... the smartass in me wants to say "Right hand technique? Thumb more or less on the center of the neck, with my fingers as perpendicular as possible to the fretboard". But, I won't...
View attachment 3824764 View attachment 3824762 My T-birds, like these two, are among a large number of basses (out of 24) that I almost always play with a pick. With the Ricks, the heel of my left hand rests on the bridge p/u cover, and I wind up playing between the pickups. On the P-Bass, it rests on the bridge cover (and, yes, there's a mute in there) and I play just behind the p/u cover. Or, occasionally, I move my hand up to the p/u cover, and play just behind the neck. With the T-Birds? I do like Sir Paul does; the heel of my left hand rests on the bridge. Which puts the pick just behind the bridge p/u. On the rare occasions I don't use a pick, or when I play one of my other, '"non-pick" basses? I anchor my thumb on something - usually a pickup; the thumb rest on the P-Bass; or whatever. It depends on the bass. On the T-birds, it's the raised center section edge. But, I very,very seldom do that; IMO, T-Birds need picks to really strut their stuff...![]()
