 Re: Double Lipping vs Single Lipping Pros & Cons?
Author: Paul Aviles

I played double lip for a few years mainly because my teacher John Yeh plays with a double lip. As a "single lip" player who used more force when playing prior to that switch I'd say what you get is a more "supple" sound. It encourages more subtlety and a smoother, more cohesive sound overall.


What I'd say about that now, MANY MANY years later now that I use virtually no force at all and can switch back and forth at will.......because I can, is that it is more important to find a way to play WITH NO FORCE (well that's virtually no force). So if there is discomfort while trying to switch from single to double lip then it is NOT worth putting yourself through that at all. It is more a whole approach to playing. Players like Marcellus and Stephen Williamson have developed their own style based on a more aggressive approach and double lip is simply not in the cards.
