Can anybody explain me how Wooten's double thumb technique works(i know i should have watched video tapes of his or something plus i missed a seminars of his on april)?If able provide me with some pics or video links or something(porn also welcome but you know what the administrators would say,right?)
I started a thread on another site about this here: http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=417930 In that thread someone posted a link to a quick time vid: http://www.basslobster.com/videos/victorwootenlesson.mov I found this really handy, as well as the mp3 lesson (also a link on there somewhere). I'm struggling to get to grips with it at the moment - I think im getting it slowly, but its really tiring and I cant practice it for long.
Hello - I made a lessons page on my website for this some time ago now - have a look here: http://www.munkio.com/music/music_lessons.html and here's a little demonstration of what you can do with this stuff - eventually... http://www.munkio.com/music/music_videos_slap.html I hope these help. Mike
I know - I'm hanging out elsewhere these days - mainly in London, playing lots - drop me a PM if you like. Cheers V M
Thanks fella - how's tricks in Bristol? - my site was long overdue a redesign - I am desperatekly trying to get round to doing some fresh recordings and shoot some instructional stuff for my site - for download - but I've been ridiculously busy - I now have two pages on MySpace though: Me - www.myspace.com/flynnbass My Band - www.myspace.com/jascomusic Cheers M
Man, thanks a thousand years!At last i got it,you know i had a really twisted view about this thing(thought that actually was slapping with your right hand's thumb and tapping with the left hand's thumb but that would be called "dual thumbing" right?He-he).Thanks for broadening my horizons and show me new possibilities. P.S.:At last european members P.S.2:That's a lot of cd's! P.S.3:I see you play a thumb bass too!
