Start of the video: Kristofer: we're going to do this *he starts tapping* Me: @_@ wtf... .... End of the video: Me: Oh.... now i get it. :D *gets my guitar... practice...practice...practice* ... Me: oh yeaah !! beat that!!! *tapping all the way* Mom: Hey will you stop that! annoying sound!! Me: :O :| :(......
Hey, Kris! - I just started checking out your videos and appreciate what you're doing for those seeking to learn. Remember, the most common personality in rock or any competitive pursuit is someone telling you that you suck; usually to try to bring you down to their level. Ignore the dicks and don't let it bother you. Keep doing it for the many, many more folks who appreciate it. If they're that good they should be elsewhere not dis'n someone trying to be helpful. Keep it up and piss on 'em.
that last note you tap with your right hand, are you doing a tapped harmonic to get that little squeal? Pretty cool. I remember seeing this video in a pop on ultimate guitar about 4 years ago when I was using tabs to learn bass. Now I do both. I never though about what you were doing, but now I see these crazy techniques and they don't seem really hard. KH was a badass guitarist, but he's pretty basic compared to others. Still a great guitarists though
I have some problems with the middle finger tapping... It doesn't sound... Maybe it's the amp? I do exactly the same you do but the sound is very low...
This is NOT "Tapping", this a hammer on/pull off (yes I know, using the picking hand for the hammering)....Tapping is tapping the string 12 frets above the note you are actually playing in order to get a natural harmonic. EVH used tapping in the song "Dance the night away" to get those wonderful natural harmonics.
can someone tell me what he uses to get that tone with his fender strat deluxe? :s i cant figure out what amp he uses or what kind of overdrive to get that sound.
Thats not tapping, thats right hand hammer on/pull off. Tapping is a completely different thing. If you are going to intruct people, get it right and don't spread bad information. In case you don't know what tapping is, listen to the intro in "women in love" by van halen.
People condemn tapping because it can make a begginer sound like a pro... But isn't that what music is about, the freedom of anyone to make good sounds? And besides, whilst a begginer may be able to play a simple (albeit still impressive-sounding) 12-8-5 riff, a pro can play a whole arpeggio at lightning speed... So don't condemn tapping, just incorporate it into your playing style and make those kids jealouse!
that isn't really tapping at it's fullest there is two hand tapping arpegios and tapping out melodies and holding down a formation of notes and tapping around them with the right hand whilst holding the notes in the left.
Yeah but... THANK YOU because, before, I wanted to play like Kirk hammett and it's you who gave me the possibility to do it. It's you who "start me" on the guitar. Right now, I search more lessons like John Petrucci: shredding, sweet picking, advanced tapping, etc. (sorry for my bad english)
2 years ago, I thought that this guy was awesome. Right now, I think that I'm better than him and this lesson is VERY VERY easy (for me). He is a guitarist in the style of Kirk Hammett.
@4everMetal123 lol dude.. have you heard any of kris's other stuff?
if you've been playing for two years, unless you have not gotten up from your guitar in those two years (in which case change your damn strings) there is no way you are anywhere near kris's level.
it wont do anything on mine why cant i make it do it please help me?? im doing wat your saying but nothing comes out im tapping hard like u say and doing exactly the same as you but no sound at all. im using a marshall mg50fx and a boss gt10 and my guitar is a Vintage Axxe with 5 humbuckers. how loud does the guitar have to be???
dear people, when i tap or hammer on or pull off, it is no where near as powerful as my other guitar or as powerful as yours, is there a way to fix this. Like i literally have to flick the string in order to get a good sound out of it, but i dont have to on my other guitar which is a crappier guitar
Check out a guy named Cyamak Ashtiani, just type his name into the youtube search engine....seriously an INCREDIBLE guitarist.... Weird, unique, JAWDROPPING guitar playing.....you won't be disappointed
