I have a question which has always bothered me when i use the tapping technique,How do i get the tapping to sound as loud as my strumming. Because i play a killer riff but then when i go into the tapping it is really quiet. Could you help me out.. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If you have your treble set high, then notes on the higher strings and frets might be a bit louder/clearer. Generally though, practice makes perfect.

If so you might not be performing an adequate pull off with your tapping finger. Remember not to just lift your finger off vertically after you've tapped, you need to bend the string slightly so that when you lift your finger (at an angle) it snaps back into position, making the next note sound loud and clear. And as inefficiency said, practice makes perfect. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
