I like the exercize.. but I noticed you have your wrist bent at a near 90degree angle.. do you always play like that? Do you have arthiritis yet?

lol plucking hand sounds like phucking hand hahaha, but hey, on a real level, those seem like some good techniques to learn for a beginner to master right hand technique. good video

Hi Doug,

I like your exercise, in concept, but don't see how the G string gets muted when are descending. Can you explain? Thanks.

[dougrossbass]

Good question.  The left hand mutes strings when descending.
