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.

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!

[warheart454]

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
