Tapping on nylon strings.

distressed_romeo · 05-06-2007, 08:37 PM

At the moment, my sole guitar is my classical, in a vain attempt to force me to revise (it's failing miserably). I've just begun experimenting with some of the percussive and tapping techniques I use on the steel-string (thing Preston Reed, Kaki King and Michael Hedges) and wierdly, it works really well. It takes a lot more precision and finger-strength, but the tone really sings. Definitely something I'll pursue...

clips? I'd be interested in how it sounds. I love anything that's real percussive on guitar. It's the reason i play acoustic so much.
