How to Play Phrase 6 of 'Grand Slam' on Guitar: Lick 4

So we're working on the sixth phrase of Charlie Christians "Grand Slam", solo which sounds like this. (playing guitar) We're going to be isolating the fourth lick in this video. The first three licks sounded like this, (playing guitar) lick one, lick two, lick three and now the fourth lick begins on the fifth fret on the A string. It plays that strange chord (playing) and there is no need to let the first two strings ring the way I played it the first time. Play them all separately (playing) kind of a D flat five thing. Put in the first four licks together and have this partial phrase (playing).
