Hello!
I wrote an article about two-handed tapping articulation essential (in my opinion of course).
This method I called "Portato", You can read this article here:

I would appreciate any sugestions and opinions (if You see some language mistakes I made on this
page).
Best regards

Essential of two-handed tapping articulation

This very same technique is displayed by Bob Culbertson in his "Lessons on the Stick" videos Pt. 1-3 - works perfect. ;)

Could be. I have not seen this book yet. But B. Culbertson don't use too much portato (even if he write about), he plays rather legato (or some kind of articulation mix).

Hello Adam. I had already seen one of your videos before you posted this thread and I was extremely impressed. Your technique is obviously excellent and I think that more people should know that the kind of pieces you play are playable on guitar!
Your technique is similar to that of Allan Holdsworth; he also never uses pull offs, he hates the off-tune, higher- pitched sound that the higher note makes before it releases the string in the pull off motion. I have heard his technique described as legato but I shall know better now!
However, good as your page is, I did find it hard to read the piece of writing which you have asked us to criticise and proof read. Please do not be offended when I send you an edited version of your writing, your English is much better than my Polish! (Although the only Polish I know is Chopin!). I notice that sometimes you repeat yourself unnecesarily, perhaps this is because - with English not being your first language - you are sometimes unsure if you have expressed a point clearly enough already. It is for this reason that the edited version may be a little shorter but I shall try and include all the information that was originally in your web page.

If I couldn't laugh at myself how could I laugh at someone less ridiculous?
