#246 - Modern Tapping & Fingerstyle Lesson

My friends, you voted for a modern tapping and fingerstyle riff lesson - so I'm happy to present a killer riff that serves not only as a great exercise, it also shows you exactly how I write parts like this :) This is the exact method I used for my parts in the collab with Charles Berthoud and I also used some of these approaches in 'Waterworks', 'Dopamine', and other songs.

Here are your files for this week's lesson (tabs, guitar pro, backing tracks, demonstration): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1p6nNzx97DZ2NR30y1GvJDgxAALqZsMjQ?usp=sharing

In case this is a bit too advanced for you at the moment, please remember that I made a 30-day tapping course that starts with beginner exercises: https://www.patreon.com/posts/195-best-5-min-57157475

And as always, here's a Dropbox link in case Google Drive doesn't work for you: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9jgv9qdq3jefovz/AAB8DDPRl4ceXQTSoyYzzx_Ya?dl=0

That's a killer riff with basic structure and good technique!

Sean Bull

Thanks for the lesson again Bernth, but I can't produce the harmonics because of my settings I guess...any tips to get the right sound ? Everybody can play with distortion, but clean sound are very hard to me ;-)

Erwin Weyers

and also another thing for online courses how do you buy them i am your new supporter i did the minimum package to understand how it works and also because i don't understand english perfectly but this is my fault certainly not your fault i said this i can't to understand how to buy the courses I wait for you to hear from you thanks

Hello how are you so I want ask you wich distorsion you use? or sound configuration or sound configuration and effects? any advice maybe that comes close to that kind of sound? maybe it's your secret but a setup that comes close to that sound is fine too, thanks in advance

Thanks , I got it , frets 22 & 20

Majdy Obaid

Just one octave higher, that goes for any tapping harmonic (T.H. in the tab) :)

Bernd Brodträger

Hi Bernth , it is not clear which fret do you tap on , the F chord?

Majdy Obaid

Another great lesson Bernth!

I'm conflicted about tapping melodies like this, it works really well in songs like Sex Tapes - Protest The Hero (where I first properly experienced it) or *insert song* - Polyphia, but a lot of the time I find it more difficult than just playing the notes with my fretting hand. Either way, I'm interested to try it out some more. Great vid!

James Whiteley

Another great lesson, I often wondered where you tapped a chord. Now I have a better understanding. Thanks Bernth.

Steve Shaw

Great ideas in this. How much nail do you have on your right hand fingers??
