    Slowed the video to 50% and worked it a measure at a time. Two weeks in and it's coming. Patience is the lesson here as much as the notes.

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

    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.

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

    That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.
