So the first one we're going to learn is John Lee Hooker's bass lick hammer-on.
This is very similar to the Lightnin Hopkins one except that it doesn't use the major third hammer-on.
Here's how it goes…
So what you're doing here is you're playing the open E, fretting the G on the sixth string and then hammering-on the E on the fourth string.
Notice I'm using my second finger because I try to use one finger per fret and also because the second finger has the most strength.
Ok, so let's try this lick. E, G, E.
Why don't you go ahead and try it now.
