The next fingerpicking pattern to learn differs to the previous pattern in only that the order of the first and second string has been reversed. In the early stages of learning fingerpicking it is very important to practice different patterns so you don't get into the habit of playing one type of pattern.
The previous fingerpicking pattern is used in the next example. The first chord change, from C to Am, is an easy change but the remaining changes will need to be practiced slowly at first. Special attention should be given to the final note in each bar.
The following eight bar progression in the key of D combines the two fingerpicking patterns introduced in this lesson.
