Robert Trujillo finger technique.

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey,

I've read somewhere that Robert Trujillo uses a technique with his fingers that each finger goes up and down, similair with alternate picking on the guitar. Does anyone know something about that?

Thanks

It's basically flamenco guitar technique. It makes your sound super-punchy. Geddy Lee also uses it (youre about to hear a lot about him; people love him off almost as much as they love-off a certain other bassist in a certain rock band. Except, Geddy is much better...anwyay). Check out some flamenco guitar stuff for what to do.

I use it all the time. You can also strum like a guitar on double stops and chords, it really fills in the sound.
