hey thanks for the kind words ppl - its all abt practice n doing your best dudes. It's an endless learning curve in music.
the url above for the live video jam seems to be inactive, to sample my 'originals' go to www.6string.cjb.net its free to download.
as for guitar playing that gets predictable - my 2 cents on it, is to start expanding your guitar vocabulary i.e playing more styles of music and try following/copying licks from more guitar players in that certain favourite genre of choice. for rock players, target the bluesy styled {rock}players, to build your melodic sense, vibrato/bending techniques n aggressive attack. Ritchie Blackmore [deep purple/rainbow], Uli Jon Roth [scorpions/electric sun], Jimmy Page [led zeppelin], David Gilmour [pink floyd] n Mark Farner [grandfunk railroad] - to name a few of my fav 70s blues-rock players. build more guitar vocab from these guys in rock. \m/
theres more.....i'll leave it at this for now.....hope it helps.....cheers.

Hi paul,
any tips for guitarist who wanna learn 8 finger tapping? I'm really into the tapping you did in your video.

to strengthen your tapping in general, would be to 'hammer-on' with your tapping fingers onto the fretboard. u can work on all 8 fingers in typical 1234 finger warm-up sequence using both hands. Also, look up any archive lessons at guitar sites from Jennifer Batten or Jeff Watson - they were the rock wizards of 8 finger tapping in the 80s.
in the video, i did 6 fingers in backhand position, very 'Akira Takasaki' influenced thingy hehe :twisted: all the best in your quest

well just to share with u ChanMin, i had 3 outstanding students in the 90s, 2 guys n a gal [she's an indonesian who shreds malmsteen/vinnie moore licks btw]. 1 guy went to LA music school while the other 2 to GIT, to pursue their musical quests. They were determined to play at the level they were going for, all i did was 'prepare' them for the challenges ahead. it takes two.

Should the fingers be parralel to the neck or perpendicular to the neck?
