Hi oudies :wavey:

In a formerly post I was asking for percussionsamples to make practicing funnier.

Thats another solution

Hope you like it.

Now that is what I call an innovation... Amazing!

Although I don't like that technique much.. but it definitely sounds better than that of Naseer Shamma. At least it's pleasant and makes you happier

here's a video of jouan farhan playing the oud and tapping on the neck of the oud near
the end of the video.

Jouan Farhan is a saz player also, and the tapping technique he is using on the oud here is lifted from selpe baglama style. (I don't think he's into van Halen) :buttrock:

Thanks Saz for the Info!

Its good to put some tapping in a rhythm. But the feel needs to be in context of arabic feel otherwise it will be "out" for some traditional oudist.

jouan farhan tapping on the neck of the oud technique is nothing new to most guitar players/its a standard technique to learn, no biggie.

Yes, I do

... but remember, that I only play oud since last month ... so I still need practicing before I will show it

A further nice technique to add rhythm is hammering the strings above the pickguard ... similar to the slapping technique on bass guitar.

Good Deal Chris! :applause:

But I'm curious how to have an arabic feel in a tapping situation. Instead sounding like a redundant guitarist tapping.

Jouan Farhan applies it very nicely.....

Anymore Oud Tappers Out there?

Thanks

Because I don't play oriental music, doesn't necessarily mean, that I sound like a guitarist

FLIPAX - 12-11-2009 at 04:52 AM

Off course

LOL

Just foolin Man!

I cant find any Tapper Ouders Out there.

Hmmm... Maybe I'll Practice.

But I tried it and it does not work on the high registers. No tap sound at all.

But on the first and second positions are just fine.

But it requires a bit practice for the timing of the tap rhythm.

Its hard on a fretless. compare w/ frets.

On pure Nylon it needs more power ... tap harder!

As a former drummer I have an advantage here
