Been a while since i traversed the murky depths of epic guitar slap! Been into this stuff for a long time (... i play a lot of bass), and i'm happy to see guys like Tosin Abasi and Javier Reyes from Animals as Leaders making it popular. Apparently Tosin learned the basics of this from the incredible bassist Evan Brewer.
In drop Ab tuning here on my Ibanez RG7M. Sitting out on the porch during a beautiful Tennessee summer evening and thought i'd share! Enjoy!
