You like two-handed tapping? You think there should be more
tapping in the world? Of course you do!
Here's how you can help, plus grab the spotlight and get more fame for yourself. Write
an article!
Because either you know something worth sharing, or you know somebody who does, or you could find someone who does! Then, make that your article!
For example -- a good way to get gigs, some tips on keeping a band going smoothly, a clever turnaround, some great chord substitutions, basic theory applied to tapping technique, your favorite fretboard

Please contact us with your idea. The world would love to hear from you. Besides, it's the right thing to do!
