Best Exercises to Improve Slap Bass Technique

I got a great question from a subscriber the other day:

"What are the best exercises to improve slap bass technique?".

My answer is based on creating your own slap bass lines and intentionally focusing on a particular technical aspect of slap. This is all while only using one set of notes (F# Natural Minor/Pentatonic in this example).

You will learn to:

1. Create cool sounding slap bass lines
2. Use a scale to make music
3. Improve slap, pop, hammer-on, and slide techniques
4. Improvise
