[dimoschka]

man i got a bass and i want to learn how to slap. ur vids have been very helpfull but i have one problem.

my bass doesnt give that funky sound ur bass gives. is it because of the strings? or should i change the effects? is it because my strings are old?

or might it be that im just doing it wrong :S

idk what to do lol ive tried a lot of stuff lately, but cant get it right :(

Try to go for a more trebly tone on your bass, and turn up the high and mid on your amp to get more defined slaps.

[AustralLord]

For me, the Jazz or Precision Fender bass guitars are excellent for this. But I suggest trying to play around with the tone on the amp and guitar. For groove, you want more bass and a little high, with low mid; While you need more high and mid with lower bass for slapping.
