L77 Doublethumbing in A minor

FavoriteLoadingAdd to favorites

Bass lick of the day:

Cant get more DT than this:-D, im basically using my thumb exactly as a funky rhythm guitarist would use his pick – alternating up and downstrokes

A minor – tempo 110 bpm

Want the transcription + TAB for this bass lick?

Me gusta mucho el groove que le ponés cuando tocás. Eso es yo creo lo que más cuesta aprender de estas cosas.
Thank you for the example. I like it.

I notice there is a mistake in the transcription, on the 4th beat of the 3rd bar in the repeated section and also on the 1st beat of the 4th bar also in the repeated section. Where either the tab is not true to the notation or it is the other way around.. which ever you intended is not entirely clear.
Just checked , notes are right, but the tab/fret numbers have been misplaced, thx for proofing it

Thanks a lot for the sheetmusic and tab too. I think doublethumbing is one of the most difficult things to learn for slapping for rookies like me ;)
Its not really the most important technique to master (though it beats tapping IMO ;-) ), get your fingerstyle and basic slap together first
