going to talk about legato playing. What this is, is… is…is very fast playing, but minimal use of your right hand.
Basically it is every time you change your string you are going to want to pick your new string. So if I am coming down in E-minor starting from this D here (and I am going to be doing three notes per string) start picking my scale, do pull-off pull off, pick my new string, pick my new string, pick my new string, pull off, pick my new string and you get the idea. Sometimes once you have this down you just have to pick your first note and don’t have to even pick the rest of the strings because your hammer-on will do it for you.
You can do this going up too. Pick your new string every time you hit a string. You can do different patterns.
In case you didn’t see the video in part 1 of this series… here it is again.
