Here is a way to play the "8 finger tapping" lick as posted by the guitarist "Roo" but with no tapping at all. It makes for a great workout for those wishing to strengthen the fretting hand. If you dont have 24 frets (like me) you just gotta "pretend" you do-and hope a high "E" happens where that fret would be~~

  • Lol you got that from Yngwie Malmsteen

  • No--this is a way to play a tapping lick posted by "Roo" without tapping

    Id imagine youre thinking about Yngwies "Arpeggios from hell"

  • And of course, it always helps to contort your mouth into the shapes of the notes and phrases as you play them. Good work!

  • Ha-! Im never aware Im doing that--I get teased for it all the time~!

  • Pretty badass bro

  • Damn you......

  • It's badass, but it is more fun to play as an 8 finger tapping lick imo. Regardless, I love these 4+ octave arpeggio licks. Sooo awesome.

  • Wow,...that was pretty good. Clean. I like how you let the lower bass string sustain. Can you play like that for some time as well as other rock styles? Keep up the great playing! You can definitely play on stage.

  • Bro, I was cleaning some "spams" video responses off my channel and accidentaly yours left :(

    Please, feel free to repost it. it is great. -Roo

  • yeah 8 fingers tapping is useless unless you play stanley jordan's stuff

  • @loungefly1 dude your not the only my gf make fun of me when i do that too.

    i would very much like to learn that riff if you could send me the tabs it would be very much appreciated

  • rock on bro.. oh. ..i mean bong on

  • Dam impressive

  • sounds 100x better than roos. :D
