> From some early guitar lessons, I think this is called "hammering on". I'd have to see it live to believe it, especially on the passages he was playing... with no discernable deflection of the neck. A quick light touch does not produce a plucked or hammered effect nor the embellishments which do not correspond to finger movements.
