philparker Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Great slapping...but such a poor left-hand technique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassace Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 If she can slap like that sod the left hand technique. She's using the bass mainly as a percussion device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randythoades Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Have to be honest, I am a rockabilly guy but I have never seen the point in slapping when you have the benefit of playing with a drummer, would prefer not to clash and add some melodic content. But this just shows you how good a slap bass can be as a percussive instrument too. Great playing from both. Does make me wonder how good I would be had I learned to play at that age rather than 'waste' those years on computer games and dungeons and dragons (yes indeed - I was THAT cool... err NOT) ... Grr. Might have to wok through some YouTube vids on slapping... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
