Slapping Master of Puppets

When I learned to play Metallica's Master of Puppets on guitar,

I was psyched because

I thought It was so cool. Then when I started playing bass instead

of guitar, I

wanted to be able to carry that over, but it didn't sound as cool

just playing regular,

so I wondered what it would sound like slapping. With alot of

practice I "master'd",[PUN],

the two main intro riffs while slapping. It sounds so cool when

you finally get it.

Thats it, I know a little bit more but its not as fun as these two

riffs. It seems

really hard at first but keep practicing it. It sounds so sweet.
