Fingerpicking Patterns For Beginners

Description

In this lesson we’re going to hold down a new chord and use the pattern thumb 2-1-3. The only difference is, for this chord we’re going to have to move our thumb down one more time to the D string.

So our fingers are all covering adjacent strings now. This is typically how fingerstyle works. Our thumb covers the low 3 strings while the rest of our fingers cover the high 3 strings. So let’s go ahead and grab a Dsus4 chord.
