I think you just solved my whole pull off dilemma. I've been having problems with getting the pull off note to sound louder, it would always sound like it's 50% lower in volume than the first note. Never would have thought of pushing the string downward like that.
I am able to play with alternate picking the same speed as you played. And i can do even faster than that. But when it comes to pull off i really am bad at that. I never played pull off's never did i practise. I find it difficult to apply pressure and leave in order to make the pull off successful.
I just have a question that how much time does it take to be comfortable with itcoz i wanna focus on legato techniques soon.
The 5 and 4 are in time together. Since your striking the 6th fret and pulling off to the 4th fret with only one string then what do you do about the other string on the 5th fret? Do you hit the B string 5th fret as soon as you pull off the 6th fret to the 4th fret on the G string? Does anyone understand what the hell I'm trying to ask or say?

Seriously, thank you.

How would you perform this pull off?
E
B 5
G 6p 4
The 5 and 4 are in time together. Since your striking the 6th fret and pulling off to the 4th fret with only one string then what do you do about the other string on the 5th fret? Do you hit the B string 5th fret as soon as you pull off the 6th fret to the 4th fret on the G string? Does anyone understand what the hell I'm trying to ask or say?
