Simple Slap Bass Groove

by Shawn Bradshaw

In this video bass lesson I’ll be showing you a fairly easy slap bass groove. It’s a good one to try if you’re new to playing slap bass. If you’re completely new to slap bass the first video on this page is a Slap Bass Crash Course to get you up to speed on a couple of the techniques you’re going to need.

The slap bass groove in this lesson actually comes from my “Slap Bass Funky Fundamentals” course. It’s from a chapter I call the “The Slap Groove Playground”. That’s why the grove is called “Hide & Seek” 🙂

Be sure and check out the course if you are looking for a systematic way to develop your Slap Bass Super Powers.
