Finger Tap Q

Im playing eruption for part of a solo im working on, and i'm really trying to accent every tap and pull with that "twangy" sound. Sort of a whinning noise (kind of like slash's solo in slither) I droped the tunning to D also, that seems to be helping a bit.

Any further tips to get the twangy, whinning noise would be greatly appreciated :D

rock on :cool:

well in slither he uses a wah pedal. I dont know if eddie uses it in eruption
but he uses a phase in it

Is there any sort of way i can get it w/out the pedals though? i spilled paint all over 3 of mine (md-2 phaser-2 flanger) :(

I dont need alot but just enough to excite a crowd :D

You might try using a little extra overdrive/distortion. Also, when your in the process of a pull-off while tapping, don't pull-off straight back up, pull-off at a slight angle, so when your finger leaves the string your actually slightly "plucking" it with your finger. This will make each note a little clearer and louder.

When your dropping to D, it's less tension on the strings, so the taps and pull-off's take less effort, which makes it sound better to your ears.
