This whole phrase is all on one fret using thumb and second finger only
(or what you prefer) with the E to Eb knee (4 and 8 strings) lowered
Start on the 8th string with your second finger and it alternates..
finger, thumb, finger, thumb and so on
On the first fret it would be in the key of C

This can be used as a lick or ending making the 5th string your
last note and not going any farther.


Here's the same pattern using your A pedal down through
the first part of the lick and finishing with the
B pedal down..almost the same but not quite. Also can
be used as an ending lick. Pick the last note only once and
then press your b pedal. This would be in Bb
