4 ways to play 5 half steps with 4 fingers
In this exercise, we use 4 fingers to play 5 frets, or 5 half-steps.
Sometimes we do exercises to isolate our fingers, and make them work alone.
Sometimes we do exercises to join our fingers, and make them work together.
This exercise is meant to help unlock one of the secrets to playing guitar like a master,
And that is the secret that you can use any finger to fret any note.
You are not locked in to always having to use a certain finger to make a certain sound.
These exercises are meant to break that mental habit of thinking you must use a certain finger to make a certain sound,
And reinforce the mental habit that any finger can be used to make any sound.
As you develop as a guitar player, you will be able to smoothly and seamlessly shift from one note to the next note with minimal effort, and have an intuitive feel for which finger is best to use in any given situation.
You will know by ear which note you want to hear, and your fingers will know by muscle memory how best to find that note.
