Just a little melodic slap/tap piece I've been working on. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUYBiqTpzhw
Up to 1:08 is where it's at now, the rest was just improv on the spot.
Enjoy!

The 'flutters' (is there a technical name for them?) are done with muted strings, a thump followed by two pops in rapid succession. It took me a while to figure out how people were doing those when I first heard it, and even then it took a lot of practice to be able to do it cleanly. I'm still not very consistently clean with them.
