    Andrew in the song radioactive I do a chuck and so my thumb lands on the 4 string then index on 3, middle on 2, ring on 1. Do I use the middle to pluck the 2 string since it’s already there, or do I use my index.

    It seems like to much work for the index to do

    Middle should work well 🙂

    Okay you’ll say to hit the bottom string and you’ll be using the middle finger to pluck it. But afterwards you’ll be using your thumbnail for for the same one you used your middle for. Are the two optional of which to use?

    I like to come up with the thumb nail, but a regular pluck will be fine. I’d say pick whichever is most comfortable for you.

    In radioactive bar 21, I don’t understand the finger positioning of the chord. I put my pinky on the seventh fret on the second string and ring on seventh 3rd string. It’s easier to replace the ring with the middle and replace the pinky with the ring. So could I do replace them.

    Ok thanks. It’s extra work for me to do it the other way
