The Up Down bass guitar technique is a progressive version of the slap technique, which was introduced to the masses by the famous bass player Victor Wooten. He made this technique his own unique feature and raised it to cosmic speeds. With a classic slap, we hit the string with our thumb, and with Up Down, when we make a reverse rotational movement of the wrist to the original position, we also catch the strings with our thumb (we work in approximately the same way as a pick). In the video, we will learn the secrets of this technique of playing the up-down technique: the position of the right hand and the extraction of sound, and we will analyze the most typical mistakes. Dmitry will also show a useful exercise for training and consolidating the material. ➤ Bass guitar in the video: EPIPHONE Toby Deluxe IV Bass • Bass guitar EPIPHONE Toby Deluxe IV Bass ➤ Subscribe to Dmitry Maximov's channel: http://goo.gl/LdY7i5 ➤ Other bass guitar lessons from Dmitry - https://goo.gl/2dSDk7 Dmitry Maximov is a bass guitarist with 18 years of experience, worked with such bands as Diana Arbenina and Nochnye Snaypery, Petr Nalich Musical Collective, Varvara Vizbor, Sergey Penkin, Sabina Vartanova, Alexey Goman, Natalya Vlasova, Andrey Khramov (Zemlyane), Real Bodrit and others.
