Slap bass with double thumbing in 7:4 (BL08)

Slap bass piece in the key of E and played in 7 time, based around a 12 bar blues structure. This bass line utilizes a lot of the techniques that I've illustrated in my previous videos. Playing it in 7 gives it a kind of skipping feel, it's also a bit different to just another slap bass line in E. Enjoy!

I'm now on http://playbassnow.com (thanks MarloweDK) go to Guest Teachers and find Casimer and other guest teachers there.

Hey man sounds awesome what advice would you give on like pacticing and stuff?

[casimer]

@mattpocalypse Thanks. I'd say do it a lot! That and try and not play the same licks again and again, but look for what you don't know practice that. It also helps to try and focus on different areas of playing in the same session: fret skills (scales etc), then a bit of ear training and maybe some rhythm reading or something like that. That way you stop yourself from practicing the same thing for hours and getting frustrated. There you go! A few thoughts for you.
