  1. Place the fingers on the strings.


THUMB (T)



  • The thumb will play the 4th, 5th or 6th strings. The earlier exercises
    use the thumb on the sixth string.

  • The thumb contacts the string at the point where the flesh & nail meet.

  • After striking the string, the thumb makes a small circular motion back
    up to position again.


INDEX (1), MIDDLE (2) & RING (3) FINGERS



  • The index, middle and ring fingers are put on the 3rd, 2nd and 1st
    string respectively.

  • The string contacts the finger at the point where the flesh & nail meet.

  • The motion for these fingers is an upward motion – striking the string
    then cupping up into the palm and ultimately going back down and
    resetting.
