Hello all,
i am a drummer by default but i needed something that i could play in an apartment. i found the double bass; i bought a STAGG electric upright 3/4 size. i have had some lessons from Glenn Moore of “Oregon”. i really am only wanting to focus on slap style while i also learn to play the upright. i just got some synthetic gut strings and had my bass set up for slap style. i am finding out that the electric upright that i purchased has some very good practical qualities but the lack of size makes it hard to play at times.
well thank you all for making a site like this. it is so hard to find good info about slap bass. by the way if your are looking for a decent step by step process on how to begin simple slap techniques, check out ehow.com search ken Steiner. he shows you very simple advice with how to get started on the techniques. i found it informative. :woohoo: besides this site it is the only real good info out there.
thank you all for your time
Prego,
“live, learn and grow…”
