Book Reviews of Slap It: Funk Studies for the Electric Bass - BK/CD
Book Review: the unofficially "rite" way to play a bass
Summary: 5 Stars
whether Rock, new age, or incidental the sounds of treb in a bass are unique to say the least. You can double up a mix(as with Fleetwood Mac's "Make Lov'n fun") and play it as a lead or rythm bass along with the fretless or lower and your electric lead gitar. that's three insturments that sound great and harmonious.(This is mentioned as inspiration and has nothing to do with my review of the book). I use slap in insidental music in self programed video games and movies as well as music.(so do the Japanees, notoriously funk.) If you learn the concept of bass notes(more on tuning in) you can obtain concepts for how the bass gitar and all it's amps work. You need a lot of extra equipment for this caliper of playing, not just your basic long necker kit that is sold here. An 8 string would be nice too.
