The Greatest Tapping Solos

[BillieJoeFreak:]

Hey Pit,

I wanna learn some new tapping bits and I don't listen to many guitarists that tap (minus Eddie) so I made this thread to see which tapping parts are the Pit's favorite.

Personally I love the intro to Hot for Teacher.

Ready, GO!

"Building The Church" intro/midsection has probably the best usage of tapping I have ever heard.

It's only like 20 seconds, but awesome nevertheless.

[DeuceMortius]

Ex-creations by The Fall of Troy.

Not reinventing the wheel playing-wise, but epic nonetheless.

[SuPaGrAm]

Rhythem of love has a tapping bit to the solo

[The Silent Fool]

[DTOE]

Cracking the Whip/Myths and Photographs by InMe

[pandasxsharpies]

You can try the intro to thunderstruck. its really easy, one handed tapping.

[JeanMi36]

invincible- muse but you need a octave pedal


No. The New Born solo needs a Whammy pedal, but I play the Invincible tapping bit without any pedal.

[iplay6string]

The beginning solo to Surfing With the Alien by Joe Satriani

[DefectedFromGod]

Midnight - Joe Satriani

/thread, don't try to deny it.

It's actually not that bad\hard to learn.

[ChristheImpaler]

[DCarney9116]

Departed-As I Lay Dying, the whole song is a tapping solo

[Cameronrobson]

[DCarney9116]

Nobody said One by Metallica yet? what the **** is wrong with you?

[I-Watch-Anime]

Thunderstruck :D

[cuss_man]

'breathe in, breathe out', by Between The Buried And Me

[freddaahh]

Im suprised no one said Crazy Train by Ozzy yet.

I was thinking of that one, tis brilliant. I remember that there's a great tapping section in the solo to Creeping Death.

FREDIT: Bollocks, how did I forget the intro to Passchendale by Iron Maiden? Adrian's tapping solo is spectacular. Quite slow, really, but it sounds amazing.

[WyldChylde]

Midnight - Satch

[Tubyboulin]

Green Tinted Sixties mind intro - Mr. Big
Get out of my yard when you dont have the human capo :p: - Paul Gilbert
Building the Church - Steve Vai

thats all i can really think of right now, im sure there are more though

[andrew12398]

Seattlantis - The Fall Of Troy

There's no tab for the solo, plus the tab sucks too. But it's definitely worth it, the solo sounds amazing.

I Just Got This Symphony Goin' has a pretty good tapping solo in the intro too I guess.

[I-Watch-Anime]

oh shi-

forgot Crystal Mountain - Death

[0RI0N]

Opeth the grand conjuration.

[yM.Samurai]

Romance is Dead - Parkway Drive

[ironman1478]

[ZoneKnight]

Im suprised no one said Crazy Train by Ozzy yet.

Oh yea, tapping solo my ass, who cares if he taps like 10 notes total for 2 seconds at the beginning, stop kissing so much ass.

Try Sea of Lies by Symphony X, and tell me the CrazyTrain solo is worthy of anything.

[Sirlancelot42]

Where the Slime Live - Morbid Angel

Flying High Again - Ozzy (Randy Rhoads)

[shadesofanger]

Of Sins And Shadows by Symphony X is good also.

[MTVget0FFtheAIR]

i beleive the second solo in Mr Crowley....
yeah, he actually doesn't tap it, although you easily could if you wanted to.

The phaser part in Satch Boogie by, you guessed it, Joe Satriani.

[Ismail93]

jeff loomis-final product solo

[Shredxmyheart]

Surfacing by Slipknot has some weird like backwards tapping at the beginning I think. It sounds pretty cool.

disclaimer: I do NOT endorse the listening to or otherwise of this musical group.

Edit: and I think the solo for Bleeding Mascara by Atreyu has tapping in it.

[Lt.DustyBanana]

Johny Myung's bass solo in Metropolis part 1. Favorite tapping solo guitar or bass.

QFT

I have yet to find a bassist better than good ol' Myung

[Mr. Thingy]

The second Seasons In The Abyss solo by Slayer has a really easy and cool tapping bit.

[//ANDREW\\]

sorry but thats not tapping. i can play it lol ill put up a sound clip ASAP if you dont believe me.



lol i beleive you
and yes i know its not tapping
but at the time it sounded like it....

as for tapping stuff....
they have some pretty cool piano tapping solos like Bachs Two Part Inventions...
or you could listen to Genesis's Suppers Ready
and i also think Ace Frheley did some tapping with KISS....
pretty nice....
