Slappin’ and Poppin’ with a Fortress RB?

[Gastrok]

I’m looking for a fretted 4-stringer, I love the looks of the Fortress RB, but is it any good for slappin’ and poppin’?

 

[Grgzilla]

It sure is mate.

Th RB Corvette Active is pretty good for slapping too! :wink:

 

[Myh]

Drums stop, very bad!

Yes, very bad!, now the bass solo starts. :lol:

i can only tell from what i saw and heard at Seth's clinic in stockholm: it sounds really good for pop/slap!!

he used one when performing 'Something Pretty'.

Listen here:

Ok, that one is a corvette, but they are pretty similar.

Thanks - very persuasive!

The RB Fortress is a really great bass, I have a 5 stringer, don't slap and pop much, but the little I've tried had lots of punch. The 4 stringer should be better since there's more space between the strings, the vette is real fun to slap around a bit (it's a 4 string).
