hammer on and pull off on guitar
by: Anonymous

According to Wikipedia:

Hammer-on is a stringed instrument playing technique performed (especially on guitar) by sharply bringing a fretting-hand finger down on the fingerboard behind a fret, causing a note to sound. This technique is the opposite of the pull-off.

A pull-off is a stringed instrument technique performed by plucking a string by "pulling" the string off the fingerboard with one of the fingers being used to fret the note.

The above may be abstract to you. Do a search in youtube for a better understanding (in video format) of what is meant by hammer on and pull off.
