This the best Percssive lesson I have come across: breaking down the technique into simple steps. Great job, David.

The best instruction and demonstration of this technique I've seen in the couple of years I have been learning. Thank you.

How about doing it with fingerstyle? I loved this lesson!

[@jamesperry1281]

Yea I don't use a pick

[@dwaynelasater2350]

Using that odd angle camera is Brillant! I can see exactly what you are doing.

This is a really cool lesson….plus one on the request to look at this for a more finger style like Ed Sheehan and John Mayer and the like.

[@gerardkelly877]

Excellent thanks

[@aspenx1304]

My favorite strum. 🎉. Ya, took me awhile to master, but now I just jam on it.

[@robynanglin3296]

Thx ❤a bunch

[@josephgalasso8780]

Do you teach the song by Ringo Star "Your Sixteen " ? A good song to use this Percussive Slap. --- Chords C G7 E7 F D7 A7-- capo 1- - Would like to see your version !

[@eugenetorkelson7859]

Night Moves by Bob Seger is a great song to use this on.

[@TheTsili1]

is this possible if you are fingerpicking?

[@thac0twenty377]

yeah. I was taught to have a pinky home position, so when you slap the pinky goes to the pick guard instead of the pick position. You just don't want to lose your bearings on your picking fingers

[@raybaiju4415]

Thx, what model taylor u r using. Looks small and comfortable.

[@thac0twenty377]
