too small sized for playing the bass?

Size isn't an issue, really. Colin Yong and Jonathan Sim aren't exactly very tall either, eheh... You really don't need to look like some thundering giant on the bass.
 
geez man..im 17..in singapore poly..im like damn...1.65..ard there.?crap..my cuzin who is like sec one next yr is like taller den me..niwae..the whole idea is..i always thot im too small to play bass..then there was one time..my fren wanted to jam den he needed a bassist.he called me.i was skeptical abt it at first.den when i picked it up..i was like..hey..its nt tt bad after all..niwae..isa..fret not man..AT LEAST YOU COULD PLAY AND HANDLE SUMTING BIGGER DEN URSELF..UNLIKE SOME IDIOTS OUT THERE WHO CANT EVEN HANDLE INSTRUMENTS MUCH SMALLER DEN THEM..LIKE U NOE..THOSE RECORDERS U PLAY IN PRI SKUL...heh..tts my way of thinking.
 
if you really love playing bass my friend, you will ignore those remarks from your friend and continue playing as if they never say anything at all :wink:
 
Good small size bassist like Ginette of Astreal and Desmond of Electrico. i am also a bassist whose height is only 165cm..

he's 1.5m tall and he shreds bass.
 
i love slinging mine real low... haha... coz i love immitating the styles of paul gray from slipknot and also guys from few other bands... so its like i sont stand straight and neither am i bending forward... like crouch sorta position... i like it, so yeah...
 
personal preference lah .. i sling mine really high due to me having short hands, i don't emulate anyone in particular in his way of hanging his bass, was thinking of following marcus miller but i realised that too low for me, maybe cos his hands longer than man. Yeah, so i'll stick with my current height.
 
haha..SAME!!im too lazy to stand..tiring sia..sit and play..haha.better..i stand like ermm..3/4 of the times im awake.heh.
 
i sit if i'm lazy too .. ahaah .. but i believe your movements express your passion for your playing lah .. so i stand and groove .. =) .. always gets me in the swing .. man .. GET UP MAN!! .. START MOVING AROUND!! ..
 
Honestly, I really don't see why Isa should have a problem playing the bass at all. I'm damn short and a girl too. And no one critisizes me :)

I like having my bass damn high too. Well, to me damn high is probably at my tummy. Since, I'm so small. haha.
