Ascending the tap

Hey guys... Just to share some stuff with ya'll. It's an ascending riff in melodic minor but it's in tap. Picked up this technique from michael romeo of symphony x. Really cool way to play an ascending riff... This one revolves around the A melodic minor scale. Enjoy!
Regards
Nick
