I have decided to adopt this as my main technique. Just wondering if anyone knows of any great books on the technique or has any tips. I have Guthries creative guitars btw. Thanks

Practice the descending stuff alot because i think that is harder- doing pull offs with your right hand, assumng your right handed. also praxctice the stretches and thigs, loadsof players can do 8 finger chromatics but fing it hard to nail stretche with there tapping hand. good luck, also check out tj helmerich.

Check this: www.danielegottardo.com
He's a friend of mine and made a brand new instructional video (dvd) only on 8 fingers tapping!He is outstanding and uses this tecnique for every scale and arpeggio!
In his web site you can find also some sample taken from the dvd and more.
