On page 29 in the scale and arpeggio book, it says to use the ring finger for the Mixolydian pattern 1.
This is extremely awkward since it means a massive stretch between the r and p finger.
However, Richie plays this with the middle finger in the lesson 1 video on heptatonic fingerings.
On page 17 in the same book this is said to be optional. But what is the recommendation?
Reason for asking: Playing the dominant arpeggio in Pattern 1 requires using r, unless I play the 5th (C) on the third string with p – which I find much easier.
I just realized that the first part of my post was answered before, here:
So concluding from that post it is okay to use either finger, but r is recommended.
But I am still curious about the fingering for the dominant 7 arpeggio in pattern #1. 🙂
Sorry I think I confused myself…the arpeggio is pretty self explanatory when using r. 🙂 I guess I need a break.
