This is the intro of Joe Stump's Speedball sonatina, I rearranged the
fingerings, it's much easier to play it this way. Pick this strictly
down up down up, otherwise it won't do you any good. Believe me, you're
going to encounter the inside string picking, it's really hard. Let
me explain, first you pick the 11 fret D string with a downstroke, then
9 fret A string with an upstroke, so your pick will kinda be trapped
between the strings, that's the meaning of this exercise, to learn how
to deal with awkward situations like this one.
