Hello!

A force de recevoir pas mal de demande d'une petite leçon sur le slap j'ai décidé d'en faire une!
Alors il s'agit là d'une petite leçon axée uniquement sur les tapés et non les tirés, vu que c'est ce qu'il y a de plus difficile à faire à mon avis.
J'ai commencé par un petit échauffement en cordes à vides puis un petit groove que j'ai composé, joué au pouce.
Le groove est joué d'abord à vitesse normale (100 BPM) puis ralentie (80 BPM).
La tablature est en bas de cette description ^^
J'espère que ça va aider quelques uns d'entre vous! :)
David.

Hey!
I received some requests about making a little slap lesson so I decided to make one.
This is a little lesson with slap only, no pop! Because I think that using the thumb is more difficult than the pop technic.
I started this video by doing a little warm-up, slapping the open strings, then I played a little slap groove which I made.
The slap groove is played first at normal speed (100 BPM) then slowed down (80 BPM).
The tablature is written below.
I hope it will help some of you ! :)
David.

Of course you can add more muted notes for the groove! (That's what I did sometimes without really paying attention :x)
