Right hand is slower than my left hand. Any tips to improve my right hand speed and technique?
Post Body
I was learning Stevie Wonder's "Sir Duke" earlier today and noticed as I was learning the run, I could play it up to tempo, but I would have to utilize a bunch of hammer ons and pull offs to keep up. I believe the bassist on the track is fingering every note and I've seen others cover it that way as well, but my fingers are simply not that fast yet. I probably do this on a number of other songs as well, but this was the first time it was painfully noticeable to me.
Do other bass players here have this problem? What can I do to improve the speed in my right hand so I'm able to finger more notes?
