now, with both of these things, you would think one could come to play this lick...but i can't

can someone please help me out...it's mostly that i can't get the hammer-ons to sound right...i'm either way too slow with them, or i just suck

anyways, thanks for any help

well if your playing on acoustic you need some sort of effects to get it "exactly" like that. i just strumm that part and it sounds fine, just lift your fingers off, you dont really need to hamer on like you might usually do. just my opinion.
