Playing Notes Pianissimo
To find the limitations of intensity on your guitar, pick string number 6 continuously using 60 beats per minute as your tempo.
Alternate your picking direction and play as softly as possible, so the notes are just audible.

KNOBS
CH1_L4_PG6
Nearly all electric guitars have at least two knobs; one is for volume, and the other is for tone.
Guitars having more than one pick-up may have a greater number of knobs, but they will still function as either a volume or a tone knob.
Guitars having more than one pick-up usually include a selector switch, which gives the player the option of using different combinations of pick-ups at one time.
This creates changes to the guitar's tone.

Let's play this example again using the note A Second Fret on string number 3.
This time, as you count the beats out loud, tap your foot in time with the downbeats and upbeats.
When the music reaches the eighth notes on the second pass, try your best to make the eighth notes equal in duration.

Measure number 3 may be the simplest to play, as it only contains a whole note.
A whole note rings for four beats, so you strike this note on beat number 1 and let the note ring through beats 2, 3, and 4.
The note stops ringing when you reach beat number 1 in the next measure.

Let's change to a meter of 4/4 and look at a new rhythm in the first measure of this line.
On beat number 1 falls a half note, which rings until beat number three, where a quarter note is played, which rings until beat number 4, where you must initiate a rest.
