* Learn all the notes on the 1st string for the key of C Major.
* Practice playing all the C Major notes in groups of 3 by position ascending and descending. Play without a metronome at first. Focus on the most difficult parts, but never strain yourself to the point of pain. This will most likely be using the pinky, stretching the index and middle fingers, and stretching the middle finger and pinky.
** Try to hold the stretches, fretting both notes simultaneously. This will help develop the flexibility in your hand. "Jumping" will eventually hurt your ability to sustain notes properly and be obvious to listeners - it will sound sloppy.
