Low E, frets 1-2-3-4, one finger per fret: index 1, middle 2, ring 3, pinky 4. Then the A string, and so on up to high e, then back down.

  • One note per click. Strict down-up-down-up, no exceptions.
  • Even volume on every note. Speed is not the goal.
  • Fingers stay close to the strings between notes. A finger flying away is wasted time on the way back.
