Learn to play TIMBA-style bass with Victoriano Napoles (El Pikete, Manolin "El Medico"). Watch the video and use the balance control to ether isolate the bass (left channel) or play along with the band (right channel) El Pikete! Pay close attention to how the clave corresponds with the bass lines.

This is a MULTI-MEDIA PRODUCT DOWNLOAD that contains both VIDEO and AUDIO files. This multi-media album includes three (3) videos plus three (3) specialty audio tracks. A total of 35 minutes of media.

After many requests to release an instructional product for TIMBA style bass, we present 'Video Class: Timba Bass with El Pikete'. With the video you can play along while honing in on the body langage and hand technique. For your convenience the audio tracks are also split with the bass on left and band on right.

*Special Notice: If you are a bassist and would like to provide us with transcription of the bass parts (in finale or pdf) for these three tunes, in exchange for some album downloads, please contact us as we would like to include them with this video.

Transcription Update 2008-12-10: pay close attention to the left and right hand fingertap technique Vic uses on 'No Pasa Nada'. Isolate the bass track with your balance control to listen to these very funky percussive elements that really drive the groove.
