Thanks!

All the practicing with scales really paid off on this. My pull offs are really weak and my hammers are slow but I do hit the note. I don't really know what to ask about improving the pull-offs. ? Especially at the 8th lesson where there's two pulls in a row. I get nothing.

Hi Sam,
legato technique can take a lot of effort to develop. Basically you can start studying some trills.
Marcus Lavandell did a great lesson about this topic, check his Trill Guitar Lesson.
Don't worry about speed, of course. Also, it's very important to warm up your hands and avoid any pain while you're studying.
I suggest you to check some lessons about legato on GMC. 
Daniel Realpe4th February 2010yeah back to the future! great

Hi GMC, I wrote this lesson after a request from our member sam47. It's been a real pleasure for me to record this one. Chuck Berry is one of the pioneers of rock'n'roll and a great influence for the electric guitar. I'm quite sure all of you have seen the movie "Back to the future" with Micheal J. Fox :D
So, this is my little tribute to the great Mr. Berry.
This solo uses the minor pentatonic/blues scale and some added notes. You can find five backing tracks with different tempo.
I used my Washburn Idol WI67Pro and the Korg Pandora PX4D.
Settings:
Dyna: HUM>SGL 3.7
Amp: US HI-G - Gain 3.3 - Bass 5.0 - Treble 6.3 - Middle 5.3
Cab: JAZ 1x15 - Value 10.0
Rev: PLATE1 - Value 3.3
NR: Value 8.3
Key: A major
Time signature: 4/4
Tempo: 170 bpm
Enjoy!
