So again, just this fleshy part of your thumb up against the string at the same time that you are picking. Now, since everyone's hands are shaped a little bit differently, how far or how close your thumb is to the tip of the pick really depends on you and the shape of your hands, but know that this technique is not necessarily a very easy technique to master. It's different for everybody and it takes everybody a different amount of time to really get it down to where they can do it without having to think about it.
Now, some of the things that we can do to make it easier is harmonics, love coming out when you have got lots and lots of distortion. So, if you want to really woodshed this technique, I would recommend the more distortion, the better. See, if I take the distortion away, we have a little bit of that chyme but if I pick the same way with lots of distortion, you see those harmonics just really, really jump out of the note.
Another thing that you can do to kind of make it easier for yourself is not necessarily do the harmonics sound on the wild note, try it in the third string; the third string tends to be the easiest one to get them to go on. So, I am putting my first finger here under the fifth fret of the string and again, I am just picking and rubbing the thumb on my picking hand up against the string at the same time.
After you feel like you have got that one down, that single note here at the fifth fret on the third string, then you might want to try going for a bend; I am going to bend the seventh fret at the third string of four step.
Hi, I am Jeff Carlisi and I am back with you to kind of take apart, hold on loosely and give you some of the -- give you the road map on how the songs are put together. The intro starts on the seventh fret, just basically using the one and the five, the B-note and the F-sharp.
