Chris Arp adds:
"Thank you for considering this instructional book. The purpose of this book is to give its readers an extensive and thorough wealth of guitar tapping exercises meant to challenge and decorate your playing in ways you may have never been familiar with before. The more time you spend digesting, perfecting and incorporating these ideas into your everyday playing, the more you will reap the fruits of this clever, unique and scarcely charted territory. Many of these exercises are geared to develop your ability to travel all over your fret board while utilizing tools at any spot between these frets. Its pages are a gold mine of licks and ideas for the inspiring guitarist looking to bring his playing to a higher level.

This book is not like other books. This book is filled with what I was looking for in the books I grew up with. The book includes 337 exercises, an etude from the song "Kill Us" and a transcription of the instrumental "Imogen's Puzzle"- all utilizing today's most progressive takes on finger tapping. The exercises are written in guitar tablature format to best expose the techniques involved. They are all done in standard tuning (E, A, D, G, B, E)."

"thanks for creating something so amazing for us to learn from!!!! "
"This book blew my dick off! In the best way possible thanks ARPMANDUDE!"
"Received item, looking forward to starting tapping mastery, hail the Arp!!!"
