This is a warm-up exercise for beginning guitar students which uses the first, second, third and fourth fretting hand fingers on all six strings. The metronome is set at 60 bpm (beats per minute) and each note is held for a third of a beat, or an eighth note triplet. You can pick eighth note triplets a few different ways. In this video, my picking is: down, up, up for each group. • Watch the video once all the way through and then play with the video several times. Playing clear and precise notes is more important than speed, so if the tempo is too quick, adjust your metronome to practice the exercise at a speed that is doable. It is ok to look at your hands while you practice this exercise. • This and many other exercises can be found in The Guitar Lesson Companion method book series. http://www.leadcatpress.com
