Why are my bass strings so hard?

It's a matter of strings. Depending on the condition of your neck, there may also be some effects.

First of all, the hardness of the string depends on its thickness and the material used. The natural thin is softer than the thick one, and the strings are pushed easily, but the timbre is naturally not as steely as the thick one. The materials used are generally nickel or steel, which are also different.

This one is very simple, change the strings, ask your teacher what strings he uses, ask the size and material.

Again, the deformation of the neck and bridge or the lack of adjustment will cause your strings to become more distant from the fretboard, and it will naturally be difficult for you to press it.

Good luck with your practice.

Personally, I think it is a quality problem of the piano, because if the strings are tight, they can generally be loose, but if they are not good, they should be quality problems.

Or maybe it's the problem with the piano. Basses that are of poor quality are often of higher quality, making the strings too far away from the neck and unpleasant to press.

What about the timbre?? Is there any difference in timbre?

Are you and your teacher's piano at the same price?

And according to what you said, I think it's probably a problem with the quality of the strings, and good strings definitely feel a lot better

If you can

You put your teacher's strings on your piano and feel it

You know what the reason is

The problem of strings, the bass strings are 40, 45, 50, 55, etc., which are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

The problem with bass strings is that the feel is different from that of a string that is a little more expensive.

1. Do you see if your strings are too high from the fretboard compared to your friend's?

2. If it is too high, first look at whether the neck is curved, the method is: look at the edge of the neck vertically from the head to the body, open and close the eyes, and the carpenter will look straight after planing the wood.

3. Generally, the headstock is bent forward, so you can use a hexagonal wrench to adjust it (inside the plastic cover of the headstock), if the headstock is bent forward, then use a hexagonal wrench to pull upwards (bass string direction). If it's the other way around, then pull it down. Pay attention to the wrench and observe, but also pay attention to the loose string before tuning, and estimate how much curvature the tension of the tight chord after adjustment is pulled back.

4. If the neck is straight, you can adjust the height of the bridge under the condition of ensuring that you do not play the product, each of the four bridge brackets has two small screws, find a thin six-sided wrench to adjust their height until it is appropriate. Note that the four lines have a radian horizontally, and the middle two should be higher.

5. If it can't be solved, after lowering the product, the neck is seriously damaged, which means that the deformation has become an S shape, this is going to be overhauled, and it can also be repaired, you take a look at the above suggestions first!

The string has something to do with the width of the handlebar.

Are you pitched well? I find it difficult to press the bridge lower.

If I'm not mistaken.

Shouldn't you turn the four small turns on the bass (ps: understand. ）

Uh, it's like this in my house.

Adjust the position of the chord pillow to the left and right, and fix it with all-purpose glue after it is right.
