This will give your right-hand a challenge.
Strings 10 8 and 6 is played with thumb. Play staccato.
Once the thumb is locked in to its pattern you can add the rest.

Hey Bengt, my ol' buddy

This is so good because anyone who has ever played 5-string banjo, can do this lick. I've been experimenting some but this lick has helped me a lot. Take care....Fred

Bengt, that is a very good exercise as an
introduction to "Thumb" style and/or "Fingerstyle" playing.
You're hot!

If my right-hand could perform everything that I can tab, then I'd be a happy man.

No pedals on this one.
