One problem
on which I've paid particular attention during developments
was how to recreate the "double bass feeling" by rebuilding
the parts of the outline the player is used to touching when
playing on a traditional double bass. Many bass players I talked to
told me that these points of contact are necessary
for a good handling. On the treble side I added that part
of the top referred to when playing in high positions. The
other one is the large shoulder and back held against the
body.
