Double-Pops Exercise - Tabs and Backing Tracks (Patreon)

My fellow bassists,

Last week we focused on left-hand slap articulations, this week I'm giving you an exercise to help you practise one of the more challenging right-hand articulations - the double pop.

You might have to experiment a bit with how exactly you execute the double pop. For some people it's all in the wrist, while for others, the fingers do more work. I do a bit of both - I get my wrist involved but I do make a conscious effort to pull up with each finger as well.

If you haven't done this much before, don't worry if you're pretty out of time at first, that's normal! The more you practise it, the more natural it will feel.

As always, let me know if you have any questions or comments at all! I'm working on next week's bass line construction video which I think you're gonna love!

Have a great weekend and I'll see you in the next video,

Charles
