GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Tapping...

Posted by: wylde guitar Feb 1 2008, 01:49 AM

Sorry if I'm overdoing with the topic starting (i started another a few topics down) but i'm doing a tapping exercise that goes like this.


On low E string


--- T-----------T------------T-----------T--------------T
A -----------------------------6h7h9h10p6h7h9h10
E 9p5h6h8h9p5h6h8h9



and so on up the strings which is normal. My problem is on the string skipping. I would've just hit the 9th fret on the E and then go to the A string to start on the 6. I'm wondering how i hit the 6, if i should first tap the 10th fret and pull off or hit the 6 hard with my 1st finger. The thing is if i tap the 10 and pull off my right hand must go from the 9 i would have just tapped on the E to the 10 on the next string so i'd have to move my hand very fast, but maybe that's how everybody has to do it.

I understand this may be hard to follow so for questions just ask (ill restate entire question in a different way if i must). Also i highlighted the part that i'm curious about if that helps.

Try hitting first note on A with your index finger(left hand).

Thanks, might be a little easier now instead of rushing my right hand after the tap to the next one.
