Check out this great beginner guitar lesson from GuitarLessons.com . They have a nice collection of beginner lead guitar lessons you can check out here.

In this lesson your going to learn about hammer-ons and pull-offs and how you can use them to play the G major scale Legato style using the least amount of picking. Legato playing gives a smooth flowing sound to your licks and scales.

It’s also handy if your like me and not a super fast picker. Good luck and let me know if you need any help.
