i think he playes an open d tunig (google it). then start to figure out the tapped melody line...
-
he only taps the base notes, but hammering on and pulling off while doing the percussive stuff as well is pretty impressive, can you play this piece?
-
You seem to ignore his voice which I think is at least as big a part of his music.
-
Anyone know where you can find the tab for this pure awesomeness? i must learn it!! D: And the guitar lesson doesn't have the tab. Being tone deaf I can't figure out exactly what notes he's tapping with the right hand -.-

Nobody is popular because of their hair love. He's popular because of what he does. He's popular because of his amazing song writing, his amazing voice and his ability to involve rhythmic tapping to his playing. He is an extremely talented man. No doubt about it.

@LauraSophieMoo I stand by what I say. I will also add that if Newton lost his "look", ie the dreadlocks, he wouldn't be as popular. He really is a most ordinary musician. Tapping is a very fancy trick and his accuracy leaves a lot to be desired. Anyhoo, what would you know?!

You really think this guy is 'ordinary?' Newton Faulkner is a genius when it comes to music and he really does have ALOT of talent. . . . And I agree with 'Barker Is OnFire.' You try and do that. If you think he's ordinary, I really think you should find out what talent really is.

@rockyonemambo Lol you go try tapping on an acoustic whilst playing percussive parts and singing at the same time in front of a live crowd. TLDR: He's really fucking good.

@msharp130 Actually, tapping is easy. This guy doesn't deserve the praise he gets. He is really ordinary.
ASll you guys comparing Newton to other people? Do you know how hard it is to tap acoustic? With both hands? And sing at the same time? Bear in mind the other guys pretty much are famous for tapping. This guys famous coz hes an awesome song writer, and incorporates tapping into his music.
