This one is short but very tricky. Even after slowing the tempo way down.
A Section: This section has a big stretch in bar 2 and some quick alternate picking. But the biggest challenge is at the start of bar 3. You need a very quick change from your pinkie on the A-string in bar 2 to your middle finger at the start of bar 3.
B Section: This starts with a fast run in bar 13, which is repeated in bar 14. The second time around, it’s played more quietly. I think of it as an echo. The next three bars are fiddly as they’re played high up the neck. This section ends with a chromatic descending line set against a D note.
C Section: After the first two bars, this section is mercifully easy. There’s a lot of hopping up and down the neck. But there’s plenty of time to make those transitions.
