Advanced Level - Slap Bass Study #1

This study piece was written in the style of legendary bassist Marcus Miller. One of the key challenges with this piece is playing slap bass grooves at slower tempos. This is something that bass players often struggle with but is one of the many things that Marcus excels at. This piece is also a great resource for working on the double popping technique. I performed the line using a Marcus Miller signature Fender Jazz bass strung with Rotosound strings, gauges .040, .060, .080, .100. All controls on the bass were turned up full and the bass was recorded via a SansAmp Bass Driver DI.
