I use an angle end pin that fits into the end pin socket. I use one that keeps the nut at eye level seated or standing.

I've been playing standing up with a straight end pin for 20 years. I've never gotten along with sitting, but I'm not averse to it, but being 6'3", either borrowing a bass with a long enough endpin or finding a stool that is the lauded Goldilocks height is unlikely. Your video on the RobPin has been haunting me since I first watched it! 😂 I think I'll need to measure my bass and get an order placed soon!

@@AndresMartin standing with the ergo bass would be wild!

I like the guitar footrest better than the yoga block because it has a slight slant which I find more comfortable. I have been playing for 60 years and never had any problems physically. I credit relaxed and efficient position for this. And my primary teacher, Warren Benfield.

Good point about the guitar footstool angle!

Can you lean the bass in the corner using the robpin? Great video as usual.

Thanks! I think you can leave it in the corner with the Rob Pin, though I actually haven't tried it myself. My bass corner is pretty small…. 😀

Once again I say to myself: “I should try an ergobass”

Are your feet flat on the floor with the ErgoBass? Because of my height, even with an ergo bass, I'd need to have a yoga block to reach the floor, which means I'd need to lug around both the Ergo and the yoga block.

I'm able to keep both feet flat on the floor no problem with the ErgoBass.

Cannot recommend the Ergo Bass highly enough.
