Playing Chorus 1, Lick 15 on 'Natural D Blues'

KIVETT BEDNAR: To play lick number 15, start by placing your forefinger on the 4th fret of the 4th string, that's an F sharp, and you're going to hammer on to the 5th fret 4th string. Your lick should sound like this [PLAYS LICK]. So, we're hammering on up to the 5th fret on the 4th string. And then, we're going to go up to the 4th fret, 3rd string, and then jump up a minor 3rd on the same string, 3rd string to the 7th fret, and then jump up a major 3rd with our pinkie to the 2nd string,7th fret, and then back down to the same note we started from. So [PLAYS LICK] and then, we jump up a major 2nd to the 5th fret on the 2nd string, and then from there jump up at 4th, a perfect 4th, to the 5th fret of the top string which is an A. So the notes we're playing here are F sharp, G, B, D, F sharp, D again, E and A. I'll play the lick twice very slowly and then play it a couple of times fast [PLAYS LICK].
