At the moment I use an Acustic I want to use either a Bass or Electric eventually when I can afford it. Iv also pretty much been teeaching myself everything I know thusfar about guitars, Which isnt much, anywayz.

Just one thing I wan't to know at the moment is that im having a bit of trouble with hammering is it because its alot harder for acustic or am I doing i wrong im practicing on Tool - Lateralis but I need some tips on hammering becuase I can never seem to get it :(

Thanks.

You can hammer on acoustics no problem, but of course an electric will have more sustain. To hammer on just pluck the note and quickly with force "hammer on" the designated note. Try out some trills to help you further.

high e----4h5p4h5p4h5p4h5p4h5p3h5p3h5 ect. Try other strings as well.
