Guitar Lesson Overview
Here is a cool tapping rock lick played in the key of E Minor. Just using the minor Blues Scale.
What is tapping? Tapping refers to using the tips of the fingers from your picking hand, to do hammer-ons and pull-offs, in the same way you would using your fret hand. I use my picking hand's middle finger, but you can use any finger you like. I think Eddie Van Halen mostly used his index finger.
I used a Line 6 POD HD500, KOi overdrive and a Fender Strat.
Order the HD500 from Amazon
Order the HD500 from Musician's Friend
