Solo Tips
As discussed earlier it will be necessary to rest the pick and/or fingers on the string where the damp has been indicated.
For guitarists who have not had experience with right hand technique, it is suggested you use the first finger on the second string, and the second finger on the first string (see Exercise 6).
