Here in this lesson we learn and practice our first fingerstyle exercise technique.

We are using only the picking hand for this exercise and alternating between the ‘D’ and ‘A’ bass notes whilst simply ascending and descending on the open treble strings with the first, second and third fingers.

We are in DADGAD guitar tuning.
