My fellow bassists,

I just released a video analysing Flea's style and technique, and created some exercises inspired by the man himself!

Exercise 1 develops your ability to slap triplets, while exercise 2 helps you practise hammer-ons in groupings of 8, 6, 4, 3 and 2 (inspired by Around The World by RHCP).

Let me know if you have any questions at all and I'll make sure to respond ASAP!

Thanks for coming here and practising with me, have a great weekend and I'll see you in the next video!

Charles
