    Video Transcript

    "I'm going to cover chimes in another segment a, what I'm going to show here is how to mix chimes and a little hammer on pull off to make a nice sounding little melody that's been used by a, normally more advanced guitar players a, to make a kind of beautiful passage sounding thing within the context of a song. A, in this case I'm going to be playing an A and what I'm going to do is with my third finger pick and then pull off on the seventh fret to the fifth fret. And then tap, not tap, but chime these notes so what it'll sound like is, the D string and then the same thing on the B string pull off and then chime on the A string on the octave of the fifth fret which in this case is seventeen. So slowly it would sound like this and it makes a nice sounding effect between pick notes and chimes."
