Derryl makes even great tappers like Reb Beach sound like childs play. He is one of the few guitarist truly pushing the possibilities of instrument forward and upward. Always a treat to hear what he is doing.

nice work Derryl! Been following you since your guest appearance on Tierra Del Fuego.

Derryl, I play blues, but practice ideas outside of biues to keep my style as unique to myself as the form allows.. How much of this do you think can be mastered without re-setting-up a guitar specifically for tapping?
Obviously the lower the action the easier it is for tapping. I would just recommend experimenting. I personally think you would have no problem playing your style on my guitar the way it is set up. The key is to have a lighter attack when the action is lower.

H2T is great! The radius is not a problem and is very comfortable. My only complaint is the guitar is not balanced enough. If you don't do any tapping then it's not a big deal. Whenever I'm tapping while standing up the neck tends to fall towards the floor. I suppose I could move the strap but I don't want to drill in the guitar.

Is there any kind of "trick" to getting your legato to sound that smooth?
For some reason, my various legato and tapping licks tend to not sound quite as clear when descending, and it seems like it has something to do with the angle of my pull-offs or wrist position... or something.

One thing that is helpful is to have extremely low action and very little relief or bow in the neck and light guage strings. Then it's a matter of a lot of quality practice. Start slow and gradually work up to tempo.
