chemistry1973 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) I love Steve Hackett, and thoughl he tapped, he didn’t do it like Eddie did. EVH’s approach was wholly new. No one do what he did with an electric guitar. It wasn’t about the tapping - it was his entire melodic approach. just listen to eruption.

RushFanForever Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) Check out this article on guitarist Harvey Mandel here regarding two-handed tapping. Have a listen to Mandel's 1973 album , which has the two-handed tapping technique all over the recording. Forum member custom55, would know who Mandel is from his guitar work on The Rolling Stones album Black and Blue. :) Edited August 13, 2020 by RushFanForever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) So, we seem to agree that different guitarists had different approaches, each of them made it work for them, every one of them was individual ....... so, who the hell did invent tapping????

Tapping has existed in some form or another for centuries. Niccolò Paganini (1782-1840) used similar techniques on the violin, striking the string with a bouncing bow articulated by left-hand pizzicato. Paganini considered himself a better guitarist than violinist, and in fact wrote several compositions for guitar, most famously the "Grand Sonata for Violin and Guitar." His guitar compositions are rarely performed in modern times, though his violin compositions enjoy multiple performances. Some musicologists believe he wrote his 37 violin sonatas on guitar and then transcribed them for violin. Well known to frequent taverns, Paganini was likely exposed to gypsy guitar techniques from Romani, "gypsies." He preferred playing his guitar for tavern customers instead of audiences.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapping a question for the players. it seems like tapping is easier on a electric then on a acoustic guitar? am i wrong or they are equal in difficulty? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 We RUSH nerds know this, but someone can let Steve Hackett know that the tapping, or "golpe" (Spanish for "hit") technique has a long tradition in flamenco music. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
