MASTER THE Finger tapping technique on guitar
Finger tapping on guitar is a technique that involves tapping the strings with the right hand to produce notes while simultaneously fretting the strings with the left hand. The fretting hand holds down the string on a specific fret to determine the pitch of the tapped note. This allows the player to play fast, intricate sequences and create legato runs, where notes flow smoothly into each other without any breaks.
Finger tapping requires precise coordination between the hands and can take time to master. It's often used in heavier styles of music like heavy metal and fusion, but can also be applied in a variety of musical genres.
In the video lesson below I teach you how to finger tap like the mighty Eddie Van Halen! Teaching you some simple licks that can be applied to Rock, Metal and Blues genres. A lot of fun and much easier then you think! Aimed at beginners to intermediate guitar players.

GET RESULTS WITH A metronome
As with everything you practice make sure you use a metronome and start super slow to make sure you are playing the lick correctly with the right fingers, technique and attack (it's fine to not use a metronome at first while first learning it).
I recommend starting at 60pm and use 8ths notes until you can play the lick without mistakes three or four times in a row then speed up the metronome by 5bpm. If you are really struggling playing the whole lick break it down to a bar or two. CLICK HERE to get a metronome.
The best way to really get any licks under your fingers is to practice them over a backing track and this may help inspire your own lick ideas as well. I have a free backing track channel http://www.killerbackingtracks.com
