Hello
Consider a simple lick of wholes steps: 3/5 3/7 3/9.
Now, playing it in that order, I would typically use my index finger, ring finger and pinky.
However when I reverse that sequence, I start with the pinky, and then my ring finger and middle finger seems to both try and play the second note. I am guessing the ring finger does it from memory, and the middle finger from a logistics point of view (knowing that the next step will be easier).
They still mess me around a bit. What do you guys do?
Should I force the one pattern, so that the lick is played with the same fingers up and down, or should I practice this "change" of finger pattern in the middle of a lick ?
