Arlen Roth's Daily Lesson: Hammer-ons and Pull-offs for Soul and R&B Guitar

 

07.24.2008

 

 

There's nothing the like the sweet sound of a guitarist knocking out some killer soul or R&B guitar licks. And few do it like our very own Arlen Roth.

 

Today's lesson finds Roth exploring the world of double-stops, and the slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs between the positions. They're all very important chord positions that are key to anyone's guitar-playing skills, and Roth demonstrates clearly how to incorporate this classic style into your playing repetoire.

 

Roth also demonstrates how these traditional licks were used by such legendary artsts, like Jimi Hendrix, Cornell Dupree, and Steve Cropper, and how learning these techniques can set you on a path to becoming a complete player whether you play jazz, blues, metal, or anthing else.
