Hello, I just recorded a video showing the use of ghost notes in a Slap groove, you can view the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuDXLFYIYMI

That was a cool groove. Just a little critique, you don't have to play a note every beat. Ever heard of a rest? They can kick up the groove factor in a nice slap line.

I want to apologize if somebody thinks that the title of this post is arrogant. I was watching a video of Rocco Prestia, and inspired me to incorporate the use of 16th notes in a Slap situation using ghost notes. When I said "grooving" I was really thinking on him, not on me, ...but I write it anyway, so sorry for that.

Cool, as stated: Great tone. And it's cool to see a Youtube bassist work on a groove instead of a fast solo.
