Slap Bass – Ghost Notes

Course Duration: 20 Minutes | Difficulty Level: 2

This course will show you how to add ghost notes ¬– sometimes known as 'dead notes' – into slap bass grooves. Ghost notes are common to many techniques but work particularly well with slap bass. This is because they add an additional percussive element, which fits perfectly with the rhythmic nature of the technique.
