Stu's exciting follow-up to his #1-selling Hot Licks DVD, Slap, Pop & Tap for the Bass, takes you further into the creative and technical mastery of this incredible musician. This DVD is packed with valuable instruction, such as hand and finger warm-ups, open-note arpeggios, harmonic scales and chords, false and pinched harmonics, sliding harmonics, popping two notes together, metronome practicing, raking and flamenco techniques, plus exciting solo performances of Stu's compositions Sexually Active, Terminal Beach, Count Zero, and Lone Star. Also included is his now-famous rendition of The Star Spangled Banner! Stu is a true master and perhaps the world's most well-rounded teacher and player of the bass. He is one of America's most respected and sought-after modern bass player/teachers and gives clinics all over the world. He has toured and recorded with Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and Joe Satriani, and his solo albums have brought widespread critical acclaim.

Some More Classic 90's Instruction from Stuart
This seems to be the second part of two reissue DVD conversions from VHS tapes. That doesn't make them any less instructional, in fact they are much easier to navigate than tape, that's for sure. Stuart was the really first guy to popularise finger tapping, slapping, popping, flamenco rasque's, and general 'off-the-map' playing in that late 80's 90's period. As such this is a time capsule of what was leading edge at that time - and has not often been advanced since. 99% of bass players can't do this stuff (me included - and I teach) and there's a whole load of material here to extend what you can do with the bass in a band support role and in soloing. For the cost of one lesson these have a huge amount of content.
