My fellow bassists, I hope you're having a great weekend!

Here is the practice video for the crazy slap section in the middle of my latest video, Billie Jean!

There's a lot of repetition in this one, so don't be afraid to spend an hour or two on just the first measure. Once you can play the first measure well, the next seven will fall into place pretty easily. The same is true for the last 8 measures!

As always, let me know if you have any questions about this video or the tabs, and I'll make sure to answer ASAP!

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

Charles, could you do a lesson on how you play the main bille jean melody showing left hand usage? I'm a beginner bassist and would appreciate any assistance from you.

Charles, your rendition of bille jean is outstanding. I'm trying to figure out the fingering positions and such you used. Its gonna take a very long time to get there. But someday ill get it.
