Video Transcript

"In this example I'm going to show another variation of alternate melody, this time in addition to pinches, throwing in a hammer on and again using some open strings and some just simply finger picked within the chord. In this example: I'm going to play up to speed at first, and it sounds like this. So, what I'm doing there is starting with the pinch and the hammer on and then basically doing what we call a banjo roll, which is simply going back and forth. So, I'm going. And, then ending with a C pinch. So, back up to speed, I'm going. You can also do something like that, just end with a nice little hammer on, where you're pinching and hammering on and getting that nice ring of C out there. So, that's essentially another finger stop pattern with a hammer on, pinches and little banjo rolls."
