In this first exercise, we'll explore thirds based on the C major scale. All of the forms shown in this first series are in key of C, but are meant to be movable forms, transposable to any key. I'm including the notation in tablature as well as standard notation. The intervals are meant to be played in ascending and descending order. The letters shown beneath the upper staff are fingerstyle directions of my own devising. The "p" is for thumb and "i" is for index finger. If, like me, you're just starting out on the instrument, take your time, work slowly, don't overdo on practice. Give your hands and fingers a chance to gain strength and facility. It will happen over time. Enjoy! -- GG
