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.
