hey just wanted to say thanks, you inspired me for ages when i first started out on bass. i would sit for ages watching it over and over trying to transcribe it but it was too out of my capabilities haha.
not a fan of the first bit cause of the noteation, noticed when you slap you hit the end frets a every now and than, should avoid that you'll get a clearer noice
Lol, I love your stoic face while playing, like you're not even paying attention to yourself. Slappin' away like, "Oh hi Rick, how's the wife? ... That's good, and the kids? ... Wow that's really great. Yeah I'm taking the little ones to Disney World this Su-- Oh hold on I just finished my badass bass solo."
as a bass player, you get very sick of people asking you to play seinfeld or saying that it sounds like seinfield if you slap anything. Please dont say it reminds you of seinfield!!!
Hello slap bass hero lol it's amazing guys like you who make me wanna play the slap bass!!! You're frigging awesome! You look like a metal head too, so kudos!!! :P
I have to tell you that after watching this vid i decided to pick up my bass again (normally lead guitarist) and learn this style. I absolutly love it now, so much so that ive even bought myself a new 5string to play it on. Im slapping that motha' harder than my girlfriend during sex! Much love man!
that tone on your bass is really nice! i think i have managed to transcribe and tab your solo fairly accurately too :D i hear people are wanting tabs for this?
your sickeningly awesome. the bit at the end where you shake the bass is funny too haha! Looks like you think about doing it for a few seconds too haha!! awesome 5 star!
wow your really great. I've been playin bass for a little while now and i really wanna get into slap bass i'am gonna try practising as often as i can, i would really appreciate any tips you have.

It was painful at first, but the thumb callusses pretty quickly, then it doesn't hurt much.
