Jason, these are the best lessons! For years I hit brick walls and damn near gave up. You’re lessons are a breath of fresh air and I’ve finally gained my kids attention😂 They’re all I play for at the moment
aaaah yes, the good old head tapping and fingerbanging love this style....i would suggest to get a metronome (they are dirt cheap) and learn the intro to the solo of the song 'one' by metallica, thats is a wonderful tapping practice

This is a relatively old video, but after finding this and your transition to 7-string video, I have to say that you have an incredibly great way of explaining things and "ramping up" the complexity of techniques and content. Also, you're as shredded as you can shred on that guitar, rock on man! Look forward to seeing more of you in my feed
@@jasonstallworth thanks bro!!!! You are a good communicator!! We can feel your passion!!! I started playing at 52 and I'm 58 and I love all the little moments with my guitar and especially when I progress thanks to your lessons!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!! And long live the loud!!!
Thank you!! You were very helpful!! I'm an experienced player but I don't really dabble in fingertapping . Here and there id mess around with it but couldn't exactly figure out where to go with it or if I was not exactly grasping the concept. I knew what i was doing but wasn't sure doing it the right way. You are a gentleman and a scholar! 🎸
yeah, my pulling off technique is bad, so I`m going to stop there to master that shit before continue. Been playing almost 20 years, mostly numetal, pop punk and grunge, everything yoy said in intro is spot on! Catch you later!
Mr Big !!!great examples of tapping Billy and Paul top shelf playing bass and guitar can’t go wrong with Mr Big . Both of them huge influences on my playing bass and guitar
@@jasonstallworth Wooten is a killer bass player also more funk jazz but those taps are on point . My only advice to new players would be practice practice practice got to walk before you can run take things slow till you get the memory locked in should be able to play with eyes closed . My wife says all the time how do you know what your doing with eyes closed - finger per fret muscle memory babe …. Been doing this over 20 years helps too lol
I don’t have any specific advice other than just practicing consistently as much as you possibly can. Some things will come harder than others but you’ll eventually breakthrough if you stick with it
Awesome video Jason. I love your content. I have always played rhythm guitar but I want to work on my leads. This has helped me immensely. Your instruction makes it seem achievable Thanks Jason \m/.
you are the best person I have ever watched teaching guitar with such a love and compassion! God Bless you and your Family! you are truly an awesome teacher. I have learned quite a bit watching your free videos! do you do any Skype or Zoom private lessons?
I really liked this tutorial!! i have one question though, how do i go from chords or solos while picking to finger tapping? there are many transitions from using a pick to not using one but i never knew how to do that, thank you!!
Here is the problem. No body tells you how to set up your amp so the tapping is more dominant. So what is confusing is your strings are so sensitive that the continue to hum when you hold down your finger. How do you get you guitar to do that?
That really comes down to being consistent, doing this over and over. You will eventually be able to play without string noise. I do have some tips for preventing string noise in this video: th-cam.com/video/4Oyam8IRv2A/w-d-xo.html
Great lesson! For me the hardest part is nailing the pullofs. I either get the too low force and because of that hardly any sound. Or too much and the note explodes :/
Hey man! This was a great video I have a question what effects do you recommend to make the finger tapping stand out more or sound louder? If you see this and can help me I would appreciate it a lot :)
I almost always use a little delay of my leads. That really helps. If you’re playing live, it’s good to have a volume booster and I’ll sometimes add a little more lows, mids, and gain to my leads
What key could I use this pattern in? Could I use it in Am if I am soloing to a song in Am? I've been playing for years and just trying to spice up my solos and do different things so they don't all sound the same
If I recall, A minor. What I like to do is record some rhythms in different keys and practice soloing over those. I have a video on changing keys here: th-cam.com/video/U-6m9ZjaIZ4/w-d-xo.html
I always recommend playing whatever feels most natural to you. We’re all a little different and there’s no right or wrong way…just the way that works best for you
Super slow actually the tapping finger pulls off and lets the 5th fret ring out before the 7th fret is hammered on. Slow the video down and you'll see. The slow examples are a different descending melody to the fast examples which do as I've just described. I noticed this myself when I was learning before I saw this. Worth realising to see what your fingers are doing. This is still a helpful video, thank you!
Jason, the last 2 Minutes youre talking about should be the first lesson for every beginner. We all made the same mistakes when we where young, especially because all my friends where musicians, we had different bands, all male, and where in an sometimes unhealthy competition, because thats what young men (and maybe women) do when they have a hobby....they compare their peens. The guy who had the name "speedy fingerz" when i was young, dont progressed at all in the last 20 years. hes still fast, but quickness is the first thing which degrades when you get older, but he still dont know anything about writing a good lick, he still dont know the fretboard. But we where envy with 18....gosh. And youre right. When youre a shredder, youre audience is full of other guitarists. Its a pure salamiparty. The whole front row waits for a mistake you make, so they can say "hes not that good (im better)". TH-cam and influencers like bernth give us the illusion that everyone is a superfast god. No. Its the same with other hobbies. Most of the guys out there arent the best archers, painters or chefs. TH-cam isnt real. Instagram isnt the reality. If you take someone like bernth as a goal, you will hit the wall very fast. Its fresh that a normal metal guy explains how learning works, especially when you start or restart over 30 or 40. Look at the guys who made music history....most of them are no superfast shredders, even kirk hammett or dave mustain. The solos i remember are something like dire straits. I know only one band where the solos where awesome and shreddy.....children of bodom. and they where big in the metal scene, especially here in germany and scandinavia, but never that famous. Look at the guys who fill stadiums. Sabaton has barely any solo. Amon Amarth has barely any solo. But they groove. Rhytm is more important to catch the audience than 500213502 notes.
@@jasonstallworth inwould invite you to Germany to fulfill your dream to play on a Wacken Stage, gut sadly you cant get any Wacken Tickets as a normal Person anymore because they get scalped by bots in seconds. and i dont pay 2000 bucks for a Ticket which costs me 80 in 2006 when i was there (great lineup, children of bodom😋, emperor, Motörhead, amon amarth, arch enemy, Gamma Ray and more). I hate Ticketmaster or the German Version Eventim
You may need to crank the gain or get hotter pickups. It should not be a struggle or painful...I actually have a very light touch with tapping, and playing, in general

You make a good point ,people learn at different rates,dont compare yourself to others ,focus on yourself.
Yeah dude, I was always a slow learner and got the joke 2 days to late, and had to read the book 3x to get it! We all learn at different levels!
Jason your Pun’s and reaction to them have grown on me and it just taps me on the funny bone in some way
😅 🤘
You are awesome guitar teacher
I appreciate that 🙏🏻🤘

Oh man, that is awesome be killer tapping lick (One!). I’ve always loved Kirk’s style
PLaying it is one thing, but you make it flow and clean sounding. Nicely demonstrated and taught.

Which finger is best used (at the beginning) for tapping for a right-handed player?
There's not really a best, there's only what feels most natural to you
how do you get long sustain on your notes? whenever hammer on or pull of the next note, the note before chokes
A lot of that comes from the gain on the amp (and/or pedal)
Great lesson! For me the hardest part is nailing the pullofs. I either get the too low force and because of that hardly any sound. Or too much and the note explodes :/
Yeah those can be tricky!

I’m so splintered in skills when playing guitar I can do tapping and power chords and that’s it lol
🤘
is it bad if instead of pulling off the ring finger we pull it in ? cause it's easier to go fast and it's sound quite the same
I always recommend playing whatever feels most natural to you. We’re all a little different and there’s no right or wrong way…just the way that works best for you
Awesome tutorial J! Always like finger tapping and pull offs. Cheers to a six pack of Blue Moon🍺🍺🍺🍺😎🎸🎸🎸🎸

Which player influences you,re,tapping ,or is it solos/songs?
For tapping, EVH, for sure. Joe Satriani is my greatest overall influence though
How do u get it to sound so clear
Lots of repetition!
sir i have to request you this lesson awesome but i need count to every notes..so please give us..its very helpful to me..thank you
I encourage you to take the concept of the video and play what you're hearing...see what you can come up with. It's all about creating your own path
