Melodic Slap/Tap Bass Solo

Me playing part of a bass solo song I've been writing. Using mostly slap/tap style playing. Just remember, it's a work in progress. Playing my Ken Lawrence bass, with a set of year-old DR Hi-Beams this time. I love how these strings feel and sound when they're aged!

[GBagley]

@DayleKT - It's a slap with the thumb, followed by two pops (index then middle finger). All muted notes.

[GBagley]

@Sainyn - Standard tuning. BEADG.

Hey dude, what type of bass/amp do you use? It sounds pretty tasty!

[GBagley]

@sparksn92 - It's a Ken Lawrence bass, no amp.

I'm a bass player also, I like how you use that technique, however I would recommend using a metronome to really nail it, love it!
