Rockabilly Slap Bass Lesson: Tips, Tricks and Technique
Here’s a little tutorial of sorts on rockabilly slap bass techniques. I’m not the greatest player by any means, my only hope is to pass on some knowledge and maybe help some folks who are new to the instrument. Enjoy.

Looks like the triple slap is pluck, slap, slap, whereas the drag triplet is slap, pluck, slap
Hi brother ☺
Through your video i learned so clearly.. thanks so much.. haha
By the way i have a question.. if you possible… can you upload about this skill ..that how to build speed up triple slap skill
Here is a Japanese bassist link
I think he plays everything through triple slaps about i don't know how to do it is there a secret ???? ?
Wow, I just realised you slap down with the whole hand, but are doing the pluck with just one finger. Thats really interesting technique
Dumb newbie question; with the action really high, do you find you have to pull the string really far to get it to hit the board when it comes down?
Super vid, thanks!
That was great. ????
Really helpful video – best I’ve come across on YouTube so far !
Good job!!!
Thank you Sir ????
To add to your triplets… drag triplet hit the string with your open palm slide to your hand slap then pluck. Trample beat.. do a standard triplet slap but make a circle motion so your two slaps are on different areas of the finger board. Look into romba beats, and nova beats. Then get ready for quad slaps
What pick ups do you use and where do you position them?
Man, I learned more from watching this than I have in the past 12 months of researching and reading. VERY WELL DONE! A sincere thank you.
Just wanted to add my thanks as well for this introductory lesson. I have only been playing upright for about 4 months and have been learning from this video and a handful of others on YouTube (e.g. Beg to the Roots). Very well done.
Hi.Tell me please what height did you make for the strings for the slap?Cheers.Kosta.
My first practice with an upright. You were very helpful. Maybe in a year I’ll be able to get some of these rhythms.
Thank you for your time in explaining this, good stuff!! ????
New to the double bass and your tips have been the best!
