Blues Style Lick Using Hammer Ons & Pull Offs on a Left Handed Guitar

Previously I showed what a hammer on and pull off was and it was simply playing, picking one note and then your next note you physically fret it without picking it. And a pull off being pick and then literally pull off so what I want to show is some different a, techniques utilizing hammer ons and pull offs because they're a very useful technique as far as adding, having a nice fluid sound to your solos and also for rhythms. So a, in this first example what I'm going to show you is just a basic blues style lick using hammer ons and pull offs. So a, again I'm going to use A Minor pentatonic as my example, it's a nice middle of the fret board kind of lick. So what I'm going to do here is basically go hammer on, hammer on and then bend. Which I'll get to bending later but right now it's just, so what I'm doing there is hammer on, hammer on, hammer on, bend it, pull off, pull off, pull off, pull off and then end on my root note of A so up to speed it would be.
