Improve Your Legato Quick Lick

Ollie's back in the hot seat with another cracking guitar gym exercise to improve your legato playing! Legato simply means fluid, and one of the best ways to get a fluid sound is by using only hammer-ons and pull-offs! This lick, based around the major scale, is great for getting your fluid playing up to scratch, building strength in the fretting hand! Have some fun with it!

when doing legato should my thumb be moving aswell for instance my thumb being slightly above middle of the guitar when starting on low e should it move when going down to high e or should it stay locked in place where i started
