It's really easy, mate. Basically, make a "thumbs up" with your right hand, and slap one of the strings with the side of your thumb (try to hit the string with the bony bit in the middle). UD's chorus bassline is based on octaves, so you'd be doing that for the lower notes of the octave on the lower strings; for the higher notes on the higher strings, get the string under your fingertips and just pop it! Takes a bit of practice to get up to speed :)
i like the camera angle and everything but it makes seeing how u slap and wut the fingerings are hard but i think ur a slap bassist just cuz that was spot on
hey man, a little tip on slap bass, i don't know if you do this but to make your "pop" sound louder, bring up your low mid past zero and bring down the high mid behind the zero
@coldplay4ever1 It's called Slap Bass. You can look up tutorials almost anywhere, but essentially you hit the string with your thumb, and pull the octave note away from the fretboard, so it "pops" the string. It's quite simple once you get the hang of it.
PLEASE READ!it's not a good idea to go to biebers video & click the dislike button cause every time we go to his video he gets payed a few cents cause his vid's sponsered. Instead we pick songs like this & get as many people as we can to watch so by the 1st of march on biebers birthday all rock videos will be most viewed on youtubes charts. this will get the younger audience to listen to good music & might have good rock bands form again.PLEASE SPREAD THIS MESSAGE!COPYPASTE&THUMBSUP
@Wuvdeer the string guage simply refers to the thickness of the strings. The higher the gauge the thicker the string. For example if you have an E string that is 0.100" that is considered a "Light" 0.105 would be considered "Medium" and 0.110" would be considered "Heavy"... there are all sorts of inbetweens such as extra light or medium light, ect... but that's the general guist of what they are refering to when it comes to string guage.
@lolazzo0 i don't get your comment...sure it's a great cover, but it's not exactly the hardest bass part to play (though it is still an awesome feel :D)
at first I was like, "thats not slappin' da bass" but then at :50 I was like "Damn!" Your bass slaps are good, in my opinion. Can definitely see the work that went into this.
@NeonBlazer22 Oh shut the fuck up! Yes Justin Beiber sucks, get over it. No one likes him so just ignore his existence. And the dislikes were from people who didn't like the video. Yes! There are people in the world who's opinions differ from your's. That' something you're going to have to get over too.
you played the wrong notes for the verse btw.
when the singing starts go down to 6th fret
