@JimJimJimNL You don’t HAVE to, but you probably will, since the strings are really loose at that part of the neck.

@BassLessonsOnline
yea but to is the purpose of slapbass to let the strings hit the frets? I am very new to this.

You don’t have to hit hard enough for the strings to hit the frets.

Yes, as described in my video, the thumb should be parallel (to the strings) too.

Parallel? perpendicular seems like it would be hitting the B string more…
