Lesson twelve features the pattern one extension in the key of A, and also introduces additional notes which may be used in pattern one to create an alternative fingering. The following diagram shows the alternative fingering for pattern one with the pattern two extension. The example given is in the key of A. This optional fingering has been achieved by incorporating into the pattern, two additional notes on the fifth and sixth strings.
Now practice the following examples which ascend and descend the pattern using the alternative fingering. Attention should be given to the suggested fingering which is indicated below the tablature.
