"New Grass" is featured on my debut CD, "Outside the Box".
The song won first place for Best Solo Instrumental Song in the 2001
Just Plain Folks song contest. Here's the tuning I use for the song and a short video clip of the main
'slapping/tapping' technique that gives this tune it's unique sound. Try slapping the low strings with your thumb like a bass player. The harmonic tapping happens by keeping the left hand hammer on's going on and simultaneously tapping the 12th fret harmonics with your right hand. I discovered this by accident and was astounded to hear that you could get two separate melody lines going on at the same time! |
