Five Finger Tapping
Learning to tap with more than three fingers isn't as hard as you might think, so in thislesson we're going to take a look at 5 finger tapping for guitar. The concept may be alittle different for some, but the process of getting multi-finger tapping down is the samewith any other technique.All you have to do is start slow enough so that you can get the coordination down. Onceyou've got the muscle memory flowing, the tempo is a lot easier to keep than it is withstandard three finger tapping.Here's a break down of the tapping process:1. Tap the 11th fret with your picking hand index finger.2. Pull off to the fretting hand index finger, which isanchored on the 5th fret.3. Hammer-on/pull off from the 5th to the 7th fret withyour ring finger.4. Tap the 12th fret with your picking hand middle finger.5. Pull off to the fretting hand index finger anchoredon the 5th fret.6. Hammer-on/ pull off from the 5th to the 8th fret withthe pinkie finger.That completes the whole cycle of this tap. The trick then is to make sure that you canloop the tap in good timing.This particular five finger tapping exercise is of course minor, and is not appropriate for every style of music, but the formula for this type of guitar tapping can be customized tofit in with different styles of music.
