    Reb is one of the few guitarist to come out of the hair metal scene who was actually phenomenal. Like Vito Bratta, they were excellent guitarists whether they tapped or not. They didn't use tapping as a gimmick. They used it because it fit the song

    When I was thrash metal-crazy teen I shocked my guitar teacher at the time by asking him to work through some Winger stuff with me. He recalled how back in the 80’s he and his buddies (all big time thrash guys) used to see Winger music videos on Headbanger’s Ball and say “they’re posers, but that guy can shred” (obviously referring to Reb lol). Winger were actually a super cool band though - easily one of the most complex of the hair/glam scene if you pay attention. I listen to those original three albums often.

  • @kristenvespera4835
    @kristenvespera4835 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The thing I've always loved about Reb Beach is his approach to tapping. He uses it less for arpeggios and more as like an extension of his left hand legato almost like he has an extra finger on the fretting hand. You will notice in this transcription that most of the tapped notes are only a fret or two higher than the left hand notes. I find this approach to be very intuitive and accessible and it's a simple way to increase your speed because you can do similar legato runs as you would do without tapping but squeezing in the extra tapping finger to sneak a few notes allowing you to often go from 16th notes to 16th triplets or from 16th triplets to 32nd notes. Yes, he does do arpeggios. You can see that here. But the tapping in the scale runs is really just a useful way of utilizing the technique without just doing arpeggios all the time.

    • @alzinn8231
      @alzinn8231 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nzinn73 I recall an interview in Guitar World, I believe it was the issue with Reb, Nuno Bettencourt and Ritchie Kotzen, circa 1989, where Reb said something to the effect he used tapping to kind of replace not using his pinky, or something very similar. Personally, I don't get why people wouldn't use your pinky at least some of the time, it's an extra couple of frets to use. But the guy is an awesome player regardless and clearly doesn't need my advice.
