Mark... i think this lesson is.... one ....of the best you make for slap bass..you simplify the rhythm to the very basics and what the drum bits is about ...mark you are the BEST..thankx man...
yes...thanks for breaking it down...most slap exercise videos seem to just showcase the person's skill but you make it easy and understandable to beginners despite being an amazing player! Ur not only an awesome player but an equally awesome teacher...
How do you get such a clean and crisp sound and yet keep the low end in there? I can never seem to set my eq's and bass controls to get that tone and I have good equipment! What do you do on the bass/treble settings and pickup balance?
Dear Mark you are a really good teacher. those lessons helped me to become a good teacher for my students. thank you so much.wish you a good luck and a healthy life. i am Upali from Srilanka.

Hi ;) just to ask, i have got stright thumb like naturally, a thumb doesn't bend back like common traits. how do you think that affect my slap technique? i'm tring to figure out. Tx
Hi Mark, dhow do you make your E string sound similarly bright with that zing and overtones as A string? I often find that E string becomes dull earlier.
Someone please help me!!!! All I can get when slapping is the sound of the strings, hitting the frets with the actual bass note right in the background 😩😩😩 is it because my action is too low?????

You are the great..
As a drummer learning bass, this was a breakthrough for me! Finally, tying them together! Thanks, Mark
Nicely explained .... Nicely broken down.
Your lessons are helping me learn to slap a lot. They're very good lessons thank you.
This is actually really useful for learning how to "tune into" the drums and groove with them. Great job! Thanks
I loved this lesson! I've been needing to work on my slap recently and his slap vids have been helping me.
Awesome lesson ❤
What a great lesson. Thanks.

If you have a cheap amp with rigid/less controls, try getting an EQ pedal which can help you manipulate the frequencies.
This lessons are pure gold, thanks !!
As always great instruction and teaching method

what is the product SR number for that Ibanez Bass
Michael Hollis ,why? its the ugliest bass on earth.

As usual, very high quality lesson. Mark,......can you explain drum fills using slap bass ?
This is awesome

Are you picking with your thumb sir?
Same question over here! I can't believe nobody but you (and me) noticed that!
Cool. Thanks.
Very good and helpful for me to learn slap technique thanx
you are the best.
Like the exercises, with the second exercise the last note landing on Ab would have sounded better. So C, Bb,G, Ab.
Hey Mark, i was wondering what software you are using for drum backing tracks?
Mark, what is that device on your ibanez around the pickups?
They are Sims Super Quad pickups. That's just a plastic encasing for mounting because of the mismatch between the original and required routing.
TalkingBass - Online Bass Lessons what ibanez is this
cheers for this, one thing though, i recognized that your slapping the fret board sometimes, watch out with your thumb : p
Hw do u get that crusty sound and depth at the same time?
waw super !! thank you :D
When the drums are playing and he starts talking it looks like he's about to rap xddd
how can i get the backing track
Why are u plucking with thumb instead of index ?
What bass guitar is that?
que lastima que no esta subtitulado en español
what is your bass type ?
Ibanez SR-1000 iirc. Soundgears are badass basses and budget friendly.
Someone please help me!!!!
All I can get when slapping is the sound of the strings, hitting the frets with the actual bass note right in the background 😩😩😩 is it because my action is too low?????
I don't get the pefect tone yet but what helped me with that issue was to get knowledge on how to use compression and equalizer on the bass.
I might be a bit late but it is probably because you are not using your wrist for the movement enough; you are using the arm too much.
I hear undisclosed diaries by muse in there. But great job man!
+Jaylor 116 Don't know that tune. I'll give it a listen.
I can even hear My Sharona in there, it's all in your mind.
i would say Dead Inside instead of Undisclosed Desires haha
Sağol kral
Cool Beanz ,,,
anyone else singing my sharona !
tu pa tu tu pa
