Do you want to get creative with tapping on guitar?

Are you ready to bring guitar tapping bang up to date for a new generation?

Tapping has evolved beyond the Rock and Metal shred of the '80s and '90s. As more technically minded guitarists begin to play other genres of music, tapping has become a creative and relevant tool in every guitar player's arsenal.

This book takes you from zero to hero, from first steps to building a clean versatile tapping technique. You'll also learn creative applications for writing, performing and soloing.

Throughout, the focus is on building your ability to visualise creative patterns and shapes on the fretboard that you can use to make music. From triads to arpeggios and less common tonalities that span multiple octaves, you'll discover a whole palette of sounds that is only possible with tapping on guitar.
