Ok, this is a very simple blues phrasing (so nothing that can be 
copyrighted, I hope.. I mean, this sort of licks is in the commons, 
hopefully).

I've tried to put as much effects as possible: slide, hammeron, 
pulloff, acciacatura, arpeggio, harmonics,..
Anyone can improve it, of course.
(I would have loved a bending in the first notes of the second bar, 
but this is not possible right now.. maybe Marc and his blackmagic 
powers can do it..)

I guess David promised something better for a tablature example, but 
if it's not ready we can use this basic thing in the meanwhile.
What do you think?

Cheers,
