Pentatonic Power Tapping
Christopher Schlegel Update 07-08-2011
In this new tutorial I show how to connect the 5 pentatonic box patterns using tapping technique ala Van Halen. The idea is to start with a simple lick that involves seeing and playing one pentatonic box pattern with a hammer-on and a pull-off. Then, we see and play the next higher box pattern with a tapping technique. Finally, you apply the idea to all the boxes & cover the entire fretboard!

This tutorial is meant as a kind of companion tutorial to my other recent ones on rock style guitar; the whammy bar one & the 70s arena rock.
