Triple Slap Technique

[PennybagDarrell]

can u do this with a 3/4? i cant afford a ful size right now.

[carlupright]

@PennybagDarrell It is a 3/4. Most upright bass are 3/4.

[MsCellobass]

is that a half size? looks awfully small!

[carlupright]

@MsCellobass no it's a 3/4 from King Doublebass. The peg is at the minimum and i'm pretty tall.

drag are more an accent, don't use it too much or it will lose all its magic !

[Jdundidits]

I've been playing triplets for a while now, and this definitely will be useful, I've never used the drag.

vpoflowfrequencies : no i don't care in this video. I didn't even tune my bass before doing it. I did this video for a member on a forum that asked what's the difference between those two kind of slap.

When i play live or when i record my album, it's a different story.

[vpoflowfrequencies]

So do you guys just not care whether it's in tune?

[jasona4635]

Thank you. I have the same pick- ups . Do u have an email i have a couple of  ??s thnx again.

[TheStrainers]

[Biomobile]

damned, i just can´t handle that drag triplet... Damn. 

[carlupright]

@Biomobile : Are you on any upright bass forum ?

[Biomobile]

@carlupright

Nope. Can you recommend me one (or two)?

[carlupright]

@Biomobile try doublebasschat or artofslapbass on google !

[denito79]

Thanks man it helped my very much

[carlupright]

The KS523 : yes it's a Kingdoublebass's slapking. This one has the magnetic pickup (as the lee rocker one) but on this video you hear it acoustically, recorded by my webcam so it's not at her best.

This video was only to show the difference between triplet and drag triplet to some people on a forum.

[TheKS523]

is that a slap king double bass?

[Princessejessica]

My action is low, somthing around 7mm-9mm. that's pretty low for slapping.
