civictiger Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 By band I mean like a ring band, not an actual band, ofcourse! Anyways, here is a video I found, you can see like a silver band on his thumb, has anybody know of this before and what different could it make, entirely?

witterth Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Mark king simply uses gaffa tape around thumb joint.... though the guy in your clip...?...dont know, I dont think the "ring" is for slapping,its too high up the thumb so,as far as I can see. not doing 'owt ( just jewlery ? I think) great player though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crez5150 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I dontthink that ring has anything to do with slapping the bass looks too far back on the thumb. I wear a silver thumb ring on my slapping hand that does not have anything to do with myslap technique either though people often have asked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
