I am trying to figure out the easiest way to play a progression of eighth notes (see attached image ). The hard part is playing the G-D without shifting my fingers around. I've tried hitting both strings with my ring finger, but can't avoid hitting the E-string. I am also trying ring-finger on G and pinky on D, but it's really hard to tuck that pinky behind the ring-finger, especially when I have to switch the shape back and forth as I move along (G-D-G, G-D-G, G-C-G, G-C-G, G-D-G, etc...). Of course, I can't avoid the problem by moving up the neck. I hope that makes sense. Does anyone have a good tip for a fairly new player?
Thanks,
Steve
