doc40hz Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 A bit of fun, I thought this would transcribe into a nice slap bass line! 7 Quote

Gareth Hughes Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 Too true - it's funny how close your slapping on (presumably) roundwounds is to his playing on flats. But rhythmically - a great idea to take his patterns and slap them. Quote

Steves one of my favourite players, so i spent years copying that "clank" so I guess my thumb knows how to do it too! I haven't figured out a way to convincingly slap the "gallop" though! There's a few other tunes that might work well as slap though. Something to work on I guess! Quote

Gareth Hughes Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 It’s good to be open minded to new possibilities :; (I’ll issue my apologies now) 1 Quote

Was going to make the same comment - it’s interesting that you managed to sound like SH by doing something completely opposed to his style. Very cool. Quote

pst62 Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 Nice playing, but damn, I was really hoping to see Iron Maiden being slapped about. Quote
