Hi there, new student, I haven't got a clue what I am supposed to be doing with this? 'Another Simple Melody' What are the notes? Thank you, Brian

Hello - thanks so much for your question! This lesson is simply an exercise in picking and fretting notes and playing a simple melody. The notes are D, E, and F - played with the open D string, 2nd fret of the D string, and 3rd fret of the D string, respectively. Hope this helps!

Hi, is it best to be using your fingers or a pick at this stage?

Hello - thanks so much for your question! At this stage, Anders is still using his thumb/fingers to play notes. But if you are comfortable using a pick, by all means - do it! Either techniques are acceptable at this stage.
