The next exercise is also four bars long except half notes are used. The E note is played on the 1st and 3rd beats of each bar. Remember to use a downward pick motion or alternate between your i and m fingers.
When using the pick try to use less movement as possible in the right hand. After each note is picked with a downward motion the wrist should return to the top of its action but clearing the strings. If executed correctly the right hand and wrist moves in a slight circular fashion.
