Acoustic Fingerpicking 8: Picker's Goldmine!

Description

This figure uses a combination the 4-Step Pattern and variations, as well as the left-hand technique, the pull-off.

Here are the steps for this figure:

First: Start by making a G Major chord, using your middle, ring, and pinky fingers. Add your index finger to the 1st fret of the 2nd string. This creates the Gsus4 chord. Play Variation #1 in this position, avoiding the high E string in your fingerpicking.

Next: Begin the next measure with a pinch of the bass note and the 2nd string, while at the same time doing a pull-off with your index finger, returning you to a normal G major chord.

Finally: Finish out the measure by completing the pattern on the G major chord, continuing to avoid the high E string.
