Hammering an open D....

[Khatur]

Yah so im bored and playin Let's Go Crazy by Prince


G|------------------|
D|----------h--2----|
A|---------2-3---2--|
E|--2-2-------------|

ive always just plucked the D, never hammered it before.
any trick to it or is it just lame?

[CiRRuS~BaSS]

ive always just plucked it too...maybe its more of a pull-off type move than a hammer on. cuz i dont see you you could literally hammer-on an open string. (someone can maybe prove me wrong?)

[Deacon_Blues]

I guess you would have to lift up the string from the nut and release it to create a hammer-on sound on an open string....

Hammer the 5th fret of A with your pinky

I've never heard the song, but in looking at the tab, is it possible that you are supposed to pluck the B on the A string and then hammer on to the C and then pluck the E on the D string?

That's how I read it anyway. They should have put a slur in there.
