Hi. After playing intense double bass i feel tat my muscles/nerves are being pricked from inside. Is any thing wrong in my method of playing?? I usually use flat-foot technique. And other thing is tat i could play slower double bass n much faster double bass,but i can't play in the moderate speed say 180-200.help me out with that too

Sounds as though youre not properly balanced on your throne, and are pinching nerves or overloading muscles. This would also be a reason why you have trouble playing at moderate tempos.

I feel comfortable sitting on the throne. Which double bass brand is easy to play for fast tempo's at present i have an pearl-eliminator

It isnt about brands, unfortunately.
Throwing money at a pedal is not going to fix the proble,

Tingling sensations in parts of your body would indicate a restriction of blood flow to that part of the body. Changing your pedals isnt going to fix this.

Oh my!!i thought it was only of pedals. Then what is the solution

lol, wow this is me too. I know I can't get balanced on my throne...dunno why justdoesn't work regardless the height/position. I've always just assumed it was a nice burn cause them muscles are building like when you work out...just straining the muscles and getting them used to it. I love my p120 p? but there's almost no way I can balance the left peddle to match the right which I know is one reason to me not being able to play steady on it...considering I can play most any pattern just sitting and tapping my feet...till I jump on my set and are on the pedals.
