To get to 65-70% is impressive!!!
I just cannot seem to get slapping. Les Claypool is one of the best Bassist.
So getting 70%🤔🤗👍🖤🤘🖤
@MallyDaKatt Went to school for jazz and played around 12 hrs/day for 4 years. You get pretty good with a 5-string hanging off your shoulder for that amount of time. Life went in a different direction and my chops are long gone… 👎🏼
@IrishTuxedo I do not think you lose your chops, just get rusty. Muscle memory is always there.
I tried a 5 string. Not coordinated enough. Strings to close together. At least for me anyway🙄🤷♀️
@IrishTuxedo
I do not play that much anymore.
Started getting pain in right hand and fingers in my early 40's. After a couple years of steadily getting worse, went to doctor. Osteoarthritis. Crap. On the positive, it could have been worse. Could have been rheumatoid arthritis. Yeah, could have been a whole lot worse.
@MallyDaKatt I spent hours and hours learning this baseline and got to a point where I might get a 65-70% grade on it. Vocals overtop is a completely different story.
