Introduction

Hey everyone, welcome to the site. To give you summary we show you everything you need to know about acoustic tapping. What is acoustic tapping? you might ask.. well usually when you play the guitar you play with the one to one mindset meaning: whatever string your struming is usually the string your holding your finger on. The relationship between the strumming hand and fretting hand is one to one. An example of a none one to one relationship in hands is the technique of playing the piano, most notes played on a piano are not exactly the same between both hands. The pianist can have a different rhythm, time signature, mode, pattern and so on between hands. Which overall changes the sound of music, and how the music flows.

Anyway, tired of the piano example? To get to the point, tapping is way to get around all this one to one hand play. You will be using both your hands to play notes meaning a more complex sound and more musical possibilities. The right hand will have the new job of tapping notes on the fret board and making percussive sounds. Read more in Basic Tutorials

Extras 7/12/07

There will be a new section called extras that I will have up pretty soon, it will show a little more depth to the world of playing guitar and can help you out with some recording basics. I very popular thing today is to make your own recordings and if you have a computer (I will take a guess you do), then it is practically nothing to setup your own little recording booth at home. Keep checking back for new updates.
