thanks for replying...i just bought the blink 182 enema of the state book with the music notes, and in the back it said the same thing you are saying. there is still something i dont understand. youre saying that (for hammer-on's), if you picked the 10th fret of the 5th string, you would "hammer" the 8th fret of the 5th string? also, by the word "hammer" do you mean just slamming my finger on the string or just tapping it?
thanks
this is enthusiasm.
