Play Slap Bass - Bass Lesson #3

In this video, I'm providing a basic groove that combines the two techniques we covered in Lesson 1 & 2. It is essential to have a solid foundation in any style of music. If you master these techniques, you will be well on your way to playing the most challenging slap grooves. You can download the music at "anthonyvitti.com"

Hello Mr. V,

I feel like I owe you money using these you tube videos... I have spent hours and hours watching and practicing to your lessons!!! Do you ever get over to Germany to play? I would love to hear you play and also shake your hand and thank you in person!

@CarlosKBaker - Ha ha... hey thanks Carlos. I'm glad they are helping you. I may do some more over the Summer. I don't tour much anymore. I got tired of traveling, but maybe you could take my online slap course at Berklee sometime. It's real good. I have some stuff in Bass Player Magazine this month also.

[JBass69]

Well, I have owned over 100, I have around 10 right now. Yes, they are all vintage Jazz Basses. Except for my fretless Jazz. That was made for me in the 80's
