This is the best program I have yet to see in teaching the basics to advance guitar, it also is the cheapest, Click Here, to check it out.

Exercise Number 1

So this exercise is a bit harder and fun to play, it has a sound sorta like baroque music mixed with an evil flavor. So all the tapping and playing will be done on the 1st string, and this exercise might sound familiar because it is built from the exercise in the previous lesson.
Exercise 1:


Legato and Exercise Number 2

So if you read in an early tutorial you should know that legato is the classical form of hammer ons and pull offs. But why I am referring it to legato now is because you now will be hammering on and pulling off multiple times and not just once, so really its just easier to call it legato. Anyway in this next exercise you are going to be doing two things: Tapping on an up beat and legato playing a string of notes. In the past tutorials you have only tapped on the down beat meaning at the beginning of every quarter note, this is now going to change you will now have two odd taps in this next exercise. As for the legato playing, you need to slam your fingers on the fretboard so the notes will sound.
Now for the exercise
Play it as sixteenth notes meaning count like "1 ee and ah 2 ee and ah 3 ..."


This might be a little hard because of the odd tapping rhythm, but it is important to learn how to internally pluck notes with your left hand using legato playing.
