I find them very difficuklt too. I dont know how those jazz guys do it, they pull off so cleanly that it frustrates me.

Anyway yeah, hammering-on on an acoustic is a bit hard. Teh sustain just doesnt last enough to get a good hammer-on effect. I just got myself an electric and i can feel you when you say that you get the strings all messed up. Its cuz the strings are much closer together and i have a tendency to just bunch up on strings. :( Anyways keep going at it.
