8 Finger Tapping Arpeggio Guitar Madness - Dan Mumm

[maskedguitarman97]

Fuuuuuck!

[wannaweed45]

Don't be discouraged, this can be achieved simply by buying a guitar that plays opposite of whatever hand you play with and practicing...

[DanMummSolo]

@wannaweed45 You don't have to go that far!! In fact that would be a great way to open up some new techniques, but it would not help for this technique as much as you might think. I recommend practicing the modes by tapping each note in the higher hand positions with your right hand. Practice sequences this way and also arpeggio shapes. Practice with a metronome starting at a BPM where you can play it perfectly without making a mistake. Then gradually increase the BPM. Anyone can do it!

[DanMummSolo]

@wannaweed45 When I say "right hand" I meant picking hand. If you use the method I described above, with some patience and tenacity, you will be able to play this technique much much sooner than you think. However, if you're not already proficient in finger tapping, I would suggest starting with something simpler and then working your way up.

i have never seen that before amazing duder!

[xD0NKEYx]

This is just one of those things you need the muting thing at the tip of the neck for. There's nothing wrong with it. I think this was an amazing piece.

Great job

5/5

[Ithyphallics]

I knew Chris Broderick was a Transformer....

[Roymain]

Chris Brodderick have to pay....

[TriteSix]

insane. i bet its hard to keep all the other strings quiet :O

[TheRocker0619]

you call this slowly?

hehehe!

[Lamb00FGoD]

LoL WTF ! dude you could live in a 3 story house just playing collecting change in a hat.

[XxthefailnessxX]

Very clean.

[Dreamfullofzen]

One of the more musical sounding 8 finger lines I've heard. Super cool stuff.

[DimiCOB]

You are extremly good and the cool thing about your lick is that it sounds very nice too. I wonder if this could be played withought the thing that holds the strings....Well it seems too complicated though to mute strings with your hand...Upload more 8 finger tapping arpeggios with tabs if possible..Keep shredding you are really good!!

[DanMummSolo]

@DimiCOB Thanks a lot man! This can be played easily without the hair tie at the first fret, as it only prevents a fraction of the open string vibration (actual string dampeners that work more effectively do exist, of course). The majority of the muting done here is with left and right hands alternating. The trick is to mute the strings with the hand that is not being used in the moment. Look closely to get a better view. Be sure to check my other vids for more 8 finger tapping! Thanks!

[PerpetualMoon]

how long did it take u to be able to 8 finger tap? im trying to do it now.

[kevin2849]

mad skills mad skills

[phatbirdy3689]

EPIC!!! Only word to describe this =]

[seventhstring84]

Very good!

I LOVE that Rectifier-Sound! It´s sooo full and warm! Do you use any further effects or is that the pure amp sound?

[TheBoris6119]

you rock !! boris

[Mikesane]

very nice!

[ABottleOfMeds]

Hey man whats the brand on you amp and how much did it cost? and sweet finger tappin

[Fluffypopcicle]

@ABottleOfMeds

it's either a mesa boogie dual rectifier or triple rectifier, and the prices for both those amps are fucking ridiculous. you would be better off getting an engl, or a high end peavey.

[gingersteve]

I've only discovered your videos today, and may I say your technique is fantastic!

I had a go at 8 finger tapping for a while, but unlike you I didn't have the patience =[

[DanMummSolo]

@Kurtck95 Hey man, I'm not exactly sure what you mean.. There actually isn't anything on the amp. Anyway thanks for watching!

[UponxAxNightmare]

@DanMummSolo lmao i think theyre talking about the head xD

[DanMummSolo]

@UponxAxNightmare haha you might be right!

[Kurtck95]

What's the thing called above your amp?

[StigmaTV]

A photograph...?

[Kurtck95]

lol your such an ass... the thing above the amp it's either effects or measures volume or something...

[b03tz]

Hehe i actually don't see anything above the amp...but ok :D

[kibizify2]

its the head. i think to answer your question.

[bookerwebb]

dude i'm gonna go cry for a week...then I'M LEARNING THIS!

seriously how long did it take you to play this riff perfectly?

[AndreasZimmerman]

0:24 ur fingers are longer than ur hands!

[DanMummSolo]

@AndreasZimmerman yeah they grow a couple centimeters each time I write a new riff like this. It could be a real problem in a couple years...

[mortimer2100]

this video made me decide that i would never touch my guitar again. anybody want a free jackson dkmg? i just recently put a floyd rose schaller on it.

[DanMummSolo]

@mortimer2100 Seriously man, that is the wrong reaction. You need to be fueled by that feeling, and focus on becoming better than me. Anyone can play this, it's just a matter of putting the time in. Anyway, thanks for watching!

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

@DanMummSolo

right on, i know they are most likely being facetious, but it makes me wanna grab my stick and practice more

[ghostfly97]

@mortimer2100 jajajaja...this video should inspire you to become better....excellent job Dan...now thats talent!

[tr4c3]

I see you're playing through a mesa, you using any other effects/distortion by any chance?

[dougjwhalen]

lol what the fuck... HAHA sickness

[shreddmasterstiff]

Omg dude! you have to make me tab of this!

[Halosniper128]

@listenheer ok and if you did feel like it, you couldnt anyhow.... If I was better at arpeggio's, I could do this but im just learning about different forms for now.

[DarthPew]

Awesome! : D And I found it funny how your 'now slowly' is still pretty gosh darned fast :P

[CyborgEugenics]

Parker FTW

[DonovanSchmitz]

That's cool. Can't wait until I can do that shit.

[0lloboy]
