Introduction To a Lot Of Stuff

1. Hammer On
The tab below is a snippet from Metallica's - Seek & Destroy.
Hammer on is a technique used when you want to play two notes in succession but using only one pluck.Here you pluck the note idicated before the standard notation for hammer on (h) and the hit the note indicated after the (h) .

2. Pull Off
The complete opposite of hammer on is called so. Here the standard notation is (p) . You have to hit the note indicated before the (p) and pull off the finger to the note indicated after the (p). This is done by placing one finger on the first note and one finger on the second note.

The Example Below Shows the Use of Hammer On And Pull Off Together
