Theodore Presser's best-selling Slap It! has been the leader in the funk arena for over 25 years and that has long been highly recommended among bassists. Oppenheim's step-by-step instruction book includes over 150 musical examples in slap, laid out in standard notation and tablature. String popping, dead notes, hammer-ons, and lift-offs--Slap It! covers the basics and continues right up to highly advanced slap skills. The included audio CD boasts 98 examples and is now ready to lead for the next 25 years.
