    worst bass line ever

    Id say got the time by anthrax boring left, 16th notes all with your right (fingers i will never play with a pick) makes for a slight burning sensation in the forearm

    Slap style with a six string

    i was worried about this too when i bought my first 6 string, i think its actually easier with finger style and slap, the accuracy with slap comes in no time and wen you get to double plucking i use the string below the one im hitting and use it to push off of with my knuckle, with both slap and...
