  Hmm, it seems legato is kinda tricky in here But I see you mix alternate with legato, and you not marked again where is legato in gp5, this might be confusing for begginers. But I`ll figure out that myself

We will be analyzing a “sound”. In particular the fusion of the Dorian scale with the Blues.

We will use the Blues scale and the Dorian scale that form this particular harmony.
Some, such as Santana, (example, Oye como va), Joe Satriani (Ex. Cool #9) use it at the moment of improvisation or composition.
Let’s keep in mind the sound used for this base. We will apply a strong gain to obtain a good sustain then add a delay effect and reverberation.

Chords:
Bm6

Techniques:
Legato
Palm muting
Alternate Picking
Slide
Vibrato

Scales:
B Pentatonic Minor
B Dorian
