Cliff,

I tend towards classical technique. I use the thumb a lot on the 3
bottom
strings and my index, middle, and ring fingers on the top 3. Of course
sometimes I don't obey this rule. Assuming your melody on the higher
strings I'd alternate index and middle.

I study classical as well and that is what the
Royal Conservatory suggests as a "general rule".

But since you have 5 fingers, and usually avoid
the pinky, reducing that to 4, and 6-strings
to play, you know that there are going to be
exceptions! Some exceptions are just for
playing comfort, speed, emphasis or control.

So the 'general rule' is often broken.

Snark.
