Hello my fellow bassists, hope you had a great week!

Here are the tabs and backing tracks for the exercises in my latest lesson video!

The OHSP triplet is a technique I use a lot to give a quick burst of energy and flare. It stands for "Open, hammer, slap, pluck" and it allows you to play really quick triplets without too much effort.

Tap slides are also something I throw into the middle of slap bass lines to make them sound extra funky.

And then finally there's my transcription of the main riff for Victor Wooten's U Can't Hold No Groove. If you learn this part, you'll be able to jam along well to about half of the song, since it's mostly just this riff with different fills thrown in here and there.

As always, let me know if you have any questions at all and I'll make sure to answer ASAP!

Thanks so much for coming here and practising with me, have a great day and I'll see you in the next lesson!

Dear Charles, I have two questions regarding the main riff of You can't hold no groove. How should I technically implement the fourth 16th in bar 3 or 7 after the hammer through the left hand with a left hand mute? Normally I would hammer the G with my middle finger, but I can't manage another left-hand mute with the other two. Do you then grip the G with your index finger? And the first chord in measure two or four sounds strange to my ears. I don't expect the top note to be G but rather an A played on the second fret of the G side. In addition, on the next chord I hear a dead note above the Bb and the F and not a Bb5 (add13) or at least I think that's what Vic meant. I'm very happy about your answers and opinions, lots of love for your work and effort!

Hi Marvin, 1. I hammer the G with my index finger, leaving my other three fingers ready for the left-hand slap. I can imagine hammering with the middle finger and then only having your ring and pinky for the left-hand slap would be challenging, so maybe try my method and see if that helps? 2. Those chords are definitely interesting and I've heard Victor play this song a few different ways depending on which live performance or studio version I've listened to. Sometimes the G string is muted, sometimes it's open... I'm not sure we'll ever know which is "correct" but they both sound good to me - I'd say go with whichever you prefer and don't worry too much if you accidentally do the other one every now and then!
