Okay okay...first i need comments. No new comments no new Volumes 
okay.  Enough chit chat lets get this show on the road.

Ok first of all you need to know how to slap.  Take your thumb (doesnt 
matter right or left handed) anout an inch off the string.  If 
youve done that take your thumb about 90 degrees from the string 
and strike it with your thumb.  Make shure you accedintally hit 
other string.  Ok now try this.  I mark slapping with a T but usually 
its marked with an S.

without stopping ,messing up, or hitting two strings at once. 
Now try this.
