What do you think the doctor is gonna tell me? "Keep on riding DF don't worry about the pain. Or "Get a 'bent it's anatomically better for you." ???DUH???
I've spent thousands of hour practicing my saxophone. As you know I'm a large guy and my hands are too big for some of the key. In other words, their is too much loss of motion on some of the key that required me to use the palm of my hand. I had pains in my hand because I was trying to play a horn that just wasn't set up for my anatomy. I had to have custom key work done. Once everything in a position all the pains went away instantly. That is a lesson I learned a long time ago: ergonomics are worth it. DF don't offer the ergonomics that a 'bent does for my particular body.
