Adding Popped Notes
In this course we'll begin adding popped notes into the mix, which will add a lot of additional scope to our lines. We'll also be applying the fretting hand muting technique to popped notes, and playing some more adventurous lines.
1 - Adding Popped Notes (Part 1)
In this lesson, we'll look at the popping technique and work through some exercises that put it to use.
2 - Adding Popped Notes (Part 2)
In this lesson, we'll be applying fretting hand muting to popped notes, and playing through some more complex slap and pop lines.
3 - Slap & Pop Exercise #4
This exercise is in the key of C minor. Bars 1 and 3 feature a simple, syncopated phrase, whilst bars 2 and 4 contain root-octave figures.
4 - Slap & Pop Exercise #5
This exercise is in the key of E minor and features a quicker slap-pop figure in the second and fourth bars..
5 - Slap & Pop Exercise #6
This exercise moves between G and C chords, and uses simple walking bass figures to connect them.
6 - Slap & Pop Exercise #7
This is a more complex exercise that features a quick root-octave figure at the beginning of each bar.
7 - Slap & Pop Exercise #8
This exercise is the most challenging that we've looked at so far, mostly because it has a quick tempo. The popped notes should be played staccato.
