Video Transcript

"In this lick, I'm going to show, before I showed all hammer and pull lick, pretty much, with an occasional pick. This one, I'm going to mix a little picking in with the hammer-on and pull offs. So again, in E Minor, basically the same lick except I'm going to throw some picking in it. So basically, what I'm going to start is pulling off on the High E String, eight, seven, fifth frets, and then picking the B String eight, and then coming back up to seven, eight. seven, five, so basically playing it twice. Pulling up, picking the first note on the G on the seventh and then pulling off, then picking, and pulling off again and doing the same on the D. So basically, that will sound like. So you're getting a little more picking thrown in this time and a little less legato feel."
