How do you slap and pop?

[Komakino]

Hi everyone,

Simple question: How do you slap and pop? I don't quite understand what's involved. Whenever I try I seem to just end up muting the string!

Thanks,.

Notice "Mats The Bass Lobster" link and check that out also.

Have fun,

Thanks for the link, it looks great, but how exactly do you DO a "left hand fingerboard slap (ghost note)"?!

This is how I do it (two different ways).

Have fun,

I've had a look around that site, it's a great link! Thanks a lot. I can't wait to try some of it out, but sadly my neighbours like to have an early night so I'll have to wait until tomorrow.

This is more of a technique thing, let's move over there..............
