    I keep losing the timing when I add the backup. Does anyone count this out loud or is that just me?

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

    Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.
