Hurts my fretting hand, but I did my best. Sounds cool when I get it right though that is pretty rare. Tried it up to 100 bpm but not really keeping up. Will keep trying.
-
Solid practice for working on my pinky and ring finger strength. Can nail the high E set, but am still needing to work on the muting technique for the other five strings that Tony mentions. Any suggestions on how to make that one stick?
-
interesting. I had a harder time going back down the strings that going up. This was a fun one.
-
As my fingers began to respond to the commands of my brain, I was forced to start off at a sluggish pace and gradually increase my speed. Initially, each one of them was pursuing its own individual interests, much like how cats behave.
-
I had to start slowly and gradually build up as my fingers started to obey the brain. At first, they were all doing their own thing, like cats do.
-
It seems like the way Tony plays these pull-offs are really more like reverse hammer-ons than actual pull-offs. Does anyone else know what I am saying?
-
What a great exercise! My left hand suddenly seems so talented. More fun than practicing scales.
-
Little slow and uneven but completed. 12/10/2023.
-
I found another use for the callouses on the end of my fingers!! Helps with the pressure for the pull-off.
Congratulations, !
