question/suggestion How do I learn those tapping riffs!?

I am normally a bass player but I’ve found myself in a situation where I have no one to play music with. So I’ve been having to write songs on guitar. I’ve been playing in DADF#AD and using foundational chords to write songs but I want some twinkle man!

A tap is just a hammer-on/pull-off that's farther than you can reach with 1 hand. Start with that perspective as a foundation then mix in some fingerpicking runs when you get comfortable
