Very fun to watch and listen to.  On my cbg's I find that I can only tap with good tone on the higher frets.  Do you find that to be the case as well?  

Keep up the good work and please share the results.

Les,

That...was...I dunno. Gorgeous. Whimsical. Ear opening. Mind expanding. Day-um.

I gotta learn how to do that. More recording details, if you have any. Wow.

Now that is very special. I've always been fasinated with tapping. I had a friend who was really into it and the movie, August Rush http://youtu.be/sN0c_egqXAM as I know, you are aware, brought it to the mainstream. You really do this well. If you don't teach this method, I am quite sure you would attract a following. I love the piano like quality. Thank you for sharing. Enjoy, Keni Lee
