how to fuckin slap man?

[fookkiebookkie]

my computer was lagging the video by like 2/10ths of a second but it was tripping me out because you'd take your finger off and it'd make the noise. i soon realized my computer was being a wanker

@fookkiebookkie Computers have a way of being Wankus Erectus! LOL

when you hammer on, do you keep your finger on the original fret and simply tap onto the next fret, or should you let go of the first fret and tap the 2nd?

[CoolBear777]

@PBandJeIIy Hang on to the first. Great for trills!

I speak french and couldn't understand any of the other videos but this one finally helped me :)

how is your bass so loud? whenever i try to hammer/on or pull off its not loud at all,

i have a 38 watt amp, and whenever i try this its always on the highest setting

am i doing something wrong, or do you just have a really loud amp?

[CoolBear777]

I guess my fingers are really loud! You're not doing anything wrong. I think your action (height of strings off fingerboard) has a lot to do with it. I set mine as low as I can without buzzing. I also do strength exercises for my hands as well. Take care.

[masterzelda117]

oh ok thanks!

[damoltier]

with practice you will gonna get it!

[777static777]

@masterzelda117 also, a 38w amp is tiny (especially for bass). I upgraded mid last year from a 50w to my new 450w head and 1200w 4x10 cab and, trust me, it makes a WORLD of difference (and was like heaven!)

Hi, this is just because you didn't have any comments. I'm just that nice of a guy.

[CoolBear777]

I appreciate that. Thank you very much for stopping by. Take care.
