Golchen Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I've got some of the basics of slapping going now, but I was just wondering if you lot had seen any useful videos on YouTube that show how to get some of the techniques down? not just great playing, but maybe something that helps with how to do it a bit.

craigjf1969 Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 In the search window,type in ...learn slap bass...have a look through those,might be useful! Quote
Golchen Posted March 24, 2008 Author Posted March 24, 2008 Yeah, done that and there are tons, most of which are poor. I was just wondering if anyone knew of anything specific as I was getting bored looking through lots of stuff that was not very useful. Quote
teen t-shirt Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 the god himself Flea does one on you tube.... beginning it's him showing you it quick but then he slows down to allow you to follow just type in Flea Bass.... should work if not just type in flea and look for Mad Popping or something along those lines.... have fun Quote
Col Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 He's been mentioned on this forum before, but Marlowe DK on youtube has some nice slap and funk videos, I like this double thumping one: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_evMBRIm2rY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_evMBRIm2rY[/url] Quote

zapp Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 I'm with Col and Thunderthumbs, MarlowDK because he has done some intructional vids as well as playalongs whereas Alex is more of 'look what I can do', all be it very good. I think they both use the Korg Pandora for their sounds. Quote
