Cool video but i can't seem to make a crisp and clear slap like you do, any tips?

[VirtuaAxeExperience]

@HamburgerDuck

Try slapping with your pick-up in neck position, and if your action is too low raise it a bit. If that doesn't work, slap your low E strng all day until it sounds you want it :D

[VirtuaAxeExperience]

like i said "slap guitar is a gimmick stolen from the electric bass"... but you can definately slap on a guitar so fear not. The only differences are that the strings on a guitar are much ligher/thinner than those of a bass, and the distance between each string is significantly smaller. give it a shot

[KillerWario]

i thought you can only slap on a bass... i sold my bass a while ago and bought a guitar....

[reserva123]

Hey, great video!!

I'd like to say that the second example is a little difficult to get, because you didn't show the steps, meanly the first part (in second exmaple) that you do a different slap with "3 times of bit"..... if you have time, please put this explanation about the secont example...

So, thanks and congratulations!!
