The pull-off is another popular left hand technique which can be applied to a fingerpicking style. The pull-off produces a note artificially with the left hand. This time a left hand finger is pulled away from the string after fretting the note. If played correctly, the action of the finger leaving the string will cause the string to sound.
The following example features a pull-off. A pull-off is indicated by a curved line and the symbol P. The right hand is in the second position. This run is played within the root five major scale pattern, key of C (see opposite page).
