Starts off on the high E string open 2, 3, 5, 3, 2, open, almost kind of like a scale going forward and backwards right. Okay so the way we’re actually gonna learn it, first is just half of the riff, so even if it ends up sounding like this, we’re gonna learn like this and then we’re gonna add that B string in between every other note, so let’s memorize this. It’s using something called a pedal point, all that means is every other note is gonna be the open B string.
