As promised here's Part 2 of the finger tapping keyboard style lesson.
In this lesson I will show you how to finger tap using 2 pentatonic
scales (octave) at the same time. Read on........
Ok first things first let me show you the two pentatonic patterns their pretty easy as their the same but only one is a octave higher.
Pattern One:
----------------------------------8----
---------------------------8---5------
-------------------7---5--------------
------------7---5---------------------
-----7---5----------------------------
--5------------------------------------
A Minor Pentatonic walking up using 5ths except for the 8th fret 1st
string which is a b6 or #5
Pattern Two:
-------------------------------------------20----
-----------------------------------20--17-------
------------------------19----17----------------
---------------19---17--------------------------
------19---17-----------------------------------
--17---------------------------------------------
A Minor Pentatonic walking up using 5ths except for the 20th fret 1st
string which is a b6 or #5 [Octave Higher]
Pretty simple uh......
Now let's put the two together.....
Now Together:
--------------------------------------------------------------8(20)---
-----------------------------------------------8(20)--5(17)----------
----------------------------------7(19)--5(17)-----------------------
---------------------7(19)-5(17)-------------------------------------
-------7(19)--5(17)--------------------------------------------------
-5(17)----------------------------------------------------------------

1 2 1 2 1 2 1 3 1 3
T = Tap with the finger noted above.
This sounds killer once you get it going!
Tip: Add some sweet sustain with a effects pedal and try it.
Well until next time have fun and maybe I will do a Part 3
Thanks again
