Slap... Practice THIS Daily (10 Mins)

Wanna get better at slap bass in just 10 minutes a day? This stupidly simple exercise will level up your speed, technique, and accuracy.

2 weeks from now, you walk into the music store and lay down this SICK slap riff. The owner says “Wow, you’re so good at slapping! How did you learn to do that?”

The secret? This video, and 10 minutes per day of practice. This one slap bass exercise will help fix bad tone, worse accuracy, and worse-er speed.

This exercise has been tried, tested and approved by my students on the BassBuzz forum. At the end of the video, you’ll see how they did after 14 days.

So prepare to ditch your bad habits and get the most out of your 10 minute routine. Practice this exercise every day and you'll become a master of tone, accuracy and speed while slapping.

In this video, you’ll learn how to:

* Master tone, accuracy and speed while slapping
* Use the ‘teeter totter’ technique for slap bass
* Sexy up your slap lines with ‘ghost notes’
* Play 92.3% of all hammer ons
* NOT get kicked out of music stores for slap crimes

What level can you make it to? (without joining me in slap bass jail) 👋🎸

One thing that is as sexy as BassBuzz's slapping lessons is BassBuzz's video editing. You are the best, guys.

What have you done? You've made slapping so easy to learn that anyone can do it, and we are doomed to be overrun by hordes of slappers!

Your video editing staff are next level. The lifting up of the sheet music at 1:16 is a perfect example. So many subtle things that just get put in so smoothly in every video - bravo, behind-the-camera team!!!

Props to Dan and Paul, it’s not easy to put yourself out there. We all appreciate your willingness to show your progress to help us all learn!

I’ve been playing and slapping bass for 35 years, and seen hundreds of slap bass lessons.
Yours is the first that teaches what actually matters. Great job

I just started learning bass by myself just a few weeks ago, I was struggling with finding useful tutorials online. After discovering your channel, I was flabbergasted by how you are able to explain every tiny detail just to let us get the right technique off. Thanks very much for the effort you've put into these videos, hope to see many more videos just like this! 😊

I'm halfway through beginner to badass course and I cant wait to start working on slap bass after I'm done! Definitely coming back to this video

Hi Josh, love how you take the time to edit by using high lights, especially on the fingers to show exactly what you are trying to demonstrate. It is a great visual idea.. never seen done by any other.. great video.. keep them coming. 🤟🎸

WTG Dan and Paul!! I haven't had a desire to slap but now I wanna try. Thanks Josh for another great video!!

Don't commit my mistake, I was googling the exercises, when I got to "sexy ghosts" I had to explain myself...

[jotsimransimisidhu]

[NiechoBGC]

Signed up for the Beginner to Badass lessons-- so stoked! I love how Josh just lays it out there so clearly, explains so simply, doesn't assume you know XYZ so he doesn't leave you hanging. I wanna learn it all-- Slapping just got added to my list.

Thanks for helping me learn some slap and pop, been playing since i was younger and now in my 50s and learning stuff i never did back then

[ALANO-himself]

Hey colleague...I'm impressed! How right you are with every word you say and every note you play. The lesson is very helpful and educational...if you keep it up like that, you'll definitely go to bass heaven after life. Liked and subscribed.

Thanks for the tips, I just picked up bass. And these lessons have been essential for me. Didn’t realize how fun bass was until now.

Thank you so much for talking about applying slap patterns to drum loops !!! That’s right where I’m at, I have some techniques, but I’m lost trying to solo to a drum loop.. you are the man !!!
