If so, let me know who this bassist is.... this clip is badass and I've been trying to slow-down and learn some lines from it this afternoon.

I don't understand how you can have your action set that low without nothing but buzzing. Great playing, whoever that is.

I've seen him before. IIRC, he might be a member of Statii.com

Amazing player, from what I've seen!

I've been trying to nail a couple of those slap lines, but I'm getting way too far under the strings to have that speed.

Any of you seen Alex Carter's clips on Youtube? here are some of his example clips - filmed to show how to play certain styles of slap

Snap...or should I say Slap! That guy is good...now let's debate the usefulness of slap...just kidding :-)!

He really is good...I like his tone as well...little bit of chorus. Very nice indeed!

A little touch of chorus on the bass is such an 80's thing...

...which is why I like it! :cool:

Yes...tons of chorus...touch of delay...80's solo bass!

+1, it all comes around! Neil Jason used to kill with that tone too!
