Question Leaning to Tap.

Sign in to disble this ad
So im learning a song and have everything down but finger tapping.
just cannot get the hang of it! The song is Protest The Hero- Sequoia Throne its Prog-Metal. If someone one could make a video demonstrating how to finger tap on a bass that would help me so much! But if not just some suggestions.

Here's a mini lesson from Victor Wooten on how to tap and practice chords and whatnot. Hope this helps.

Yea, follow victa he's the man at tapping. And keep your right thumb anchored on the back of the neck. It helps intonation and stability.
