Do yourself a favor and grab a Stanly Jordan album.

Awesome, that fella is good. Here's a clip or two of my favorite "tap" type player, a guy by the name of Andy Mckee

First one shows a hell of alot of skill, but he seems to get in a groove in this second one, which is a cover that im sure alot of us recognize.

Seems like he plays lead, rhythm and bass lines on that tune. Amazing.

This was probably THE favorite part of the movie for me in August Rush........if I had that scene on repeat for a month I'd be a happy camper.......

It's kinda like watching a Guitarist with Tourette's........i dig it.........(as I do Tourette's without a guitar involved)

I'm telling you guys, Stanley Jordan taps his frets like a crazy man.

Check out Justin King. He's all over YouTube


Also, Joe Bonamassa has some stuff like that too.


King has been the one the impresses me the most so far. The guy is just raw talent.

Here are a couple of Justin King:

This one is a Larrivee Guitars promo he did:

Here's a bit from Joe Bonamassa. The song is called "Woke Up Dreamin" and he's not doing as much "tapping" on the guitar in this as he does on the album but you can see that this guy is certainly a very accomplished player.
