The first part of a series, hopefully charting the progress of developing slap-type technique on Bass VI. Crossing fingers that there will be improvement...
I have a song out (called ANCHOR* by AFTER1MAGE) where I experimented with slapping on my vi. It doesn't sound too crazy but it was interesting to try as a technique. Especially with that string spacing
I've been refining what could loosely be called a technique for slap on Bass VI. I'm slowly getting there, but as with all technique it's a matter of application- I'm guilty of putting slap on everything if I play it too often. It's the Pringles of bass; once you pop, you can't stop!
