Third time coming back to this lesson over two years. It's amazing what shows up when you're ready for it.

Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.

Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.
