A pull of is when we pick the first note in our phrase but we already have our next notes finger down behind it. A pull off is the exact opposite of a hammer on in direction but a very similar technique. So after we picked the 1st string 2nd fret once we are going to pull off the 5th, 4th, and 2nd frets all on the 2nd string and then hammer on to the 4th fret to end this phrase and entire part. In one motion we are actually going to end this with a pull off to a hammer on. So after our hammer on we pick the 1st string 2nd fret once and then we pull off the frets we previously hammer oned. So don’t worry if it feels a little challenging at first. It’s a very popular technique that is fairly simple but if you have never done it before it requires some finger strength. This gives a very smooth, legato sound and changes the dynamic of the line. A hammer on is when we pick once and then slap your fretting hand fingers down on the desired note without picking again. For this part we hammer on all on the 2nd string frets 2, 4, and 5.

Then we are going to go to the 4th fret 2nd string followed by a high e and end this phrase by going to the 5th fret 2nd string followed by the high e and ending on the 7th fret 2nd string. So 5th fret 2nd string, followed by a high e, and again 5th fret 2nd string followed by another high e. Both times having an open high e after of course. When we get to the 5th fret we are actually going to play it twice. So we now go back to the 8th fret 2nd string, then an open high e, the 7th fret 2nd string on the high e, and then to the 5th fret. We are gonna keep doing this same thing but now going to the 10th fret 2nd string, followed by an open high e and then we start descending. So 5th fret second string, open high e, 7th fret 2nd string, open high e, 8th fret 2nd string, open high e. So we go 5th fret 2nd string to the 7th fret to the 8th fret, all again on the 2nd string and playing open high e’s in between. So let’s go over the notes in the melody! So we know that our pedaled note in the open first string, but the entire moving melody is played on the 2nd string. We always, always come back to this note. In this song our pedaled note is the open 1st string, the high e. In this case we play the note that switches first and our pedaled note is always second. We have one main note we treat as our home base and we keep coming back to it. Another popular song that does this is “Crazy Train” by Ozzy Osbourne. Pedaling means no matter what we do, we come back to the same note. Step one in learning how to play Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones on guitar is to learn what pedaling is.
