[fuckitiloveyou]

Thanks so much. You seem like such a nice guy lol :D

[PeterNoya]

Amazing lesson !!! Thank you !!!

[tet168]

@06pedrycb Thank you for the kind words. Yes I've come to realize that I need to kick it up a notch by adding tab graphic overlays, maybe some split screen, PIP effects etc. My set-up is pretty bare bones, but probably the first thing I need to get is a more sophisticated video editing program, so I can at least add some type of tablature overlays

[magicbuskey]

This was THE MOST HELPFUL bass lesson on funk I've ever had. Thank you soooo much! :)

[tet168]

@magicbuskey You're welcome! And thanks for the comment! Please subscribe, spread the word, stay tuned ;-)

[40gilad]

thnx man!!!! really helped me!!

ive got 1 question 4 u

r u playing this song with pick, fingers, or popping n slaping?

[tet168]

@40gilad hi, and thanks for the question! I gotta admit that my popping and slapping skills are not the most superb. I'm actually finger plucking here, though I often do play funk and soul style using a pick as well

[johnstermonster]

Thanks a lot! This really made everything a whole lot easier!

[MrOctaman]

Great lesson. Thank you!

[Granetto]
