Of all the guitar guys on KZread, David's lessons are the most all around useful to me. I hope you don't ever stop what you're doing!

Always thought Reb was a monster player. Took tapping to really cool places. Great lesson and playing 👍

Soooo glad you're covering this lesson from Reb. I could have saved a lot of trouble had I known you did this dive! This is also the only video out there where he actually shows you how to play the intro to Seventeen, note for note. PRICELESS!! And the whammy harmonic thing be does live...sadly, he doesn't explain anything, but he did touch on both techniques on his Black Magic instructional video from waaay back. Your video really puts it all together...incredible. This tapping run you see EVERYWHERE with Reb, in some form. The tapped solo but from Seventeen, also this technique. It takes a lot of repetition to get this souning as clean as you have it here. I hope to get there soon! Thanks!

If you'll notice in the first lick, he is not doing a "hammer-on from nowhere". He is picking the string with his ring finger of the right hand and tapping with the middle finger. Great lesson!

Yes, Reb frets the next string up and plucks it with his ring finger, he talks about it on the Cutting Loose video. It's almost like chicken tapping 😂

Hey SD I gotta admit that half of what I learn from these lessons are in the regards to your approach. Your right hand is complexing relaxed. And when I can catch pieces of these lessons (much of this still escapes me), a lot of this is listening to your approach and attack on these pieces with your right hand. You are a teaching machine. Rock on! 🤘

All these Reb Beach lessons are great - his style is very fluid, especially with his tapping, but you hit the nail on the head when you talk about his rhythm playing, which has feel and attitude, and tone for days

I love this series! Thank you for doing it!

Excellent Tutorial as usual . It always looked to me that Reb was using 2 tapped fingers for the ascending so thanks for breaking this technique for me.

Thanks DAVID after watching this again it gave me new possibilities .

This is an awesome video, thanks for the breakdown David!!

Another great lesson David, thank you. Reb is definitely on of my Top 5 guitarist. I believe Reb uses his middle & ring fingers on his right hand. I've also heard Reb mentioned he uses the ring finger to pluck the next string down for his hammer ons in a video.

You are a fantastic player !!

Another great lesson Dave!!! Little outside my wheelhouse but fun to work with . Just with a pick. Keep up the great work 🎸

David, you’re the best at what you do! I love all your guitars you use but none look more comfortable on you than that STRAT😍

FYI Reb Beach doesn't just tap, he taps, and then picks with his tapping finger. He showed this in his "Black Magic/Cutting Loose" video.

Yeah only when playing ascending runs tho

Great video !! Thanks for sharing this !! Definitely gotta try this !!

Hell yeah Dave! Always learning something because of your videos. You have definitely helped my playing expand substantially!

Being a Reb Beach fan, I've always struggled with his techniques. And I never got the hang of it even after all these years. Thanks David for breaking it down. You are even more AWESOME!!✊

Great lesson! -and hammer ons from nowhere are one way to do it, But Reb plucks the first note of an ascending string with his right-hand finger. It's nearly impossible to separate the tapped note and the next string, but it works at higher speeds.

fantastic Brother. always the best lessons

Thanks David, great video.

Another great video breakdown and lesson, thank you! The only suggestion I have for you is to link your related material in the description, or with end-cards. That could generate more views, and more engagement, and make The Algorithm 👾happy...for now. You deserve more subs.

Great lesson, David. I also love Reb's rhythmn playing and how he comes up with those riffs that have a perfect groove and infectious vibe. Thanks for your work and take care!

You're been putting out banger videos lately!!!!

so fun to mess around with these tap licks

thank you !!!

That was such a different way of playing. But all the licks were ascending. Would love descending versions of similar licks

Love your UFO+ alien T shirt ! 🤩

Dave, awesome coverage of one of my personal favorite guitar players. You mentioned "being a sucker for rhythm guitar" along with leads. Another axeman falling into that category is Mike Hall from Killer Dwarfs. Give a good hard listen to their Dirty Weapons CD/Album/Tape and see if you agree. Maybe you could do a little something on him from that offering..because there's NO ONE on YT (that I'VE found) covering him (shameful if ya ask me). Anyhow, see what you think..cheers!

Absolutely fantastic lesson! Huge Reb/Winger fan from seeing Madelaine on MTV. I refer to Reb's tapping style as "liquid tapping" as it flows so well off the fretboard. Would love to see you break down Nuno's string skipping tapping arpeggio solo in He-Man Woman Hater.

Good lesson and showcase of Reb. I suck at tapping. And Dave you've ran your scales a million times too! Probably why you have em down. Do you remember the boys from Tyketto? They could play

Note that reb plucks the low note with his 2nd finger instead of hammer on from nowhere . He describes this in his cutting loose. I like hammer on from nowhere

please consider Crash n Burn (intro) lesson someday, or When love Finds a Fool

Great video!! He also does this harmonics/feedback/whammy bar thing .....have you seen that!?? No idea how he is doing it !! kzread.info/dash/bejne/i5dqxcafn9WpeNo.html it's right here, starts at 3:21

Can you do tapping licks from Joel hoekstra?

Seventeen from Winger was kinda cool.

Alright Stuart.

Norum/Lynch/Beach all had their different taste with Don Dokken, and esp Norum with Up from the Ashes, which is the least talked about of the three

You got the ring finger wrong. The reason he uses it is to pull off on the next string so he can avoid hammering on from nowhere because he doesn't like it. There's a video on KZread from about 1991 where he explains the technique

He's not using the index Dave. Rent always keeps his pick tucked in his index finger. Just middle finger tapping with the aid of his ring finger to pluck next string (he's not into hammers from nowhere).

He's not hammering on the string, but he use his pinky to pick the string😂. And that's hard

Stop being a humble nice guy!! Show your shit bro. You are so accurate and clean touch

Come on do stryper

Just like Reb, I, too, don't like using my pink. However I don't tap for 💩, and I'm not a notorious badass.

Thanks for giving some love to Reb! Everybody's kissing Nuno's butt nowadays. They're trying to make him the next Van Halen. I mean he's good, but overrated. They're drooling over his solo from their new song. It's just a bunch of muted notes.

Right? I’ve definitely noticed a string shift from the guitar works media to him in recent years .. heck even Rick beato is jumping on board . Nuno is unbelievable, but Reb in my opinion was the more melodic and memorable player to me atleast . All preference of course they both rock but man Reb doesn’t get much love great to see this !

@@mattmacarthur520 Indeed! Music is subjective, but I agree. When Winger came out, I didn't like the band as a hole, but I definitely noticed Reb. I was like, he's way too good for this band lol. He never got the recognition he deserves. If he hasn't already, he should put out a solo album. Another phenomenal player that never got much recognition is Vito Bratta. I wish he still played.

@@Krullmatic I’d highly encourage you to take a deeper dive into wingers catalogue ! Everyone and their uncle associated winger with seventeen and breavis and butthead , but they are truly a killer Rock band ! Their 1993 album pull is an absolute gem and I’d bet money that 99% of people wouldn’t think or realize that it’s winger because of how much heavier they got … such a great band and Reb Beach is a god … such a great player …. And Vito bratta in my opinion is second to none .. one of the best players to have ever lived and we only got what like 4 albums worth of his playing because of him leaving the music industry behind in 1992… melody and chops for days that smite 80s era was stacked with incredible guitar players

Not complaining, but that delay is taking me out of it a bit

you are as good as you can get. A gift
