I really liked these lessons and wondered how it would sound with a heavy backing and a suitable composition over that backing track, but since I'm not really good at this technique I can't figure it out for myself. Just wondered if you could try it out and report how it sounds. And if this is a really stupid idea (what may be the case), just delete it. But anyways, love your work!

You can see them on my profile: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Juan-M-Valero My favourite lessons are "Shred Tapping Solo" and "Juan M. Valero Tapping" Now I'm working in a 8 fingers tapping lessons (I just recorded lesson 1 and 2) and my idea is to do some exercises to improve this technique You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I heard it was different. For those of you who haven't heard him. Check him out... He's amazing!!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I said always Polyphonic tapping, because with this technique you play 2 or more notes notes with BOTH hands TOGETHER. But that technique is difficult to play with distortion because IMHO it sounds dirty, so when I talk about 8 fingers tapping I only play 1 note at the same moment. So, I don't know exactly what do you want sorry !!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Well, actually I was just looking for another 8 Finger Tapping Lesson, but maybe sometimes with two oder three notes tapped at the same time, for example octaves (is that possible? ). So a mix of Polyphonic Tapping/Touch Technique and 8 Finger Tapping. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

It said (Low to High) E A D G C F ... Maybe, so when he pulls off the string is less likely to stretch over the fretboard and make the Squeaky sound? Can't wait for your new lesson!
