Best Answer

Hammering is a stringed instrument technique where a note is first struck, either on an open string or a lower(tonaly) fret, then the player fingers a higher (lower on the neck) fret while the chord or note is still sounding. The opposite of this is a "pull-off" and the two techniques complement each other well. It can be used on fretted or non-fretted instruments. It is a technique requiring some dexterity as the hammer-on needs to be done quickly and with force or else the string will mute from contact with the finger.

In guitar what does capo 2 mean?

A capo is a device which is clamped onto the fretboard and is used to hold all strings on a chosen fret, just as if you had your finger barred across on that fret. With that in mind, presumably "capo 2" would mean that you are being instructed to install the capo onto the 2nd fret. or in short....... you have to clip a capo on the second fret
