Hi,

I'm having some difficulty in playing this (hope I've done the tab right!), and wonder if anyone can suggest alternative fingering?

--14--13-----------
---------------14-- Twice
-----------14------
-------------------

then

--14--13------------
---------------12---
-----------14------- Once
--------------------

then

--14--13------------
---------------11---
-----------14------- Once
--------------------

and repeat all four bars (with a slightly different ending, but I've got that).

Many thanks! :)

easy...

3rd - 1st - 2nd - 3rd

3rd - 2nd - 3rd - 1st

3rd - 2nd - 3rd - 1st

(finger numbers...1st being index) :cool:

I question your use of back to back ring fingers addly.

I suggest the following:

--14---------------
-------18------14-- Twice
-----------14------
-------------------

(1st 4th 1st 1st) where the firsts are from a barred 14th fret using the index finger

then

--14---------------
------18-----------
----------14--17--- Once
--------------------

(1st 4th 1st 3rd) your choice to bar with the 1st's or not

then

--14---------------
------18-----------
-----------14--16-- Once
--------------------

1st 4th 1st 3rd again.
