   Hi GMC! Today I recorded a tapping solo to help you to improve this interesting technique. I think that every guitar player should consider learning this technique as a way to get new playing possibilities.
In this exercise you will learn some of the most used patterns using the triads of every progression’s chord.

How I composed?
As you know, if you are following my GMC lessons I use to compose the chord progression first and then with arpeggios and triads I build the solos. This lesson was composed in the same way.

This is the chord progression: Em – B – D – A – C – G – C – D – Em


Triad’s notes:

Em: E G# B
B : B D# F#
D : D F# A
A : A C# E
C : C E G
G : G B D

Home works: Learn the triads in the fret board and compose your own tapping ideas using the same patterns of this lesson. I would like to listen to your idea in the GMC Forum!

Nice. A suggestion on the lighting you are using to video yourself. Its pretty dark and contrasty. Bring in a light from your left side. It would light up the fretboard better. Make it easier to see your hands.
