Hi. I am a beginner trying to learn clawing. I can get the first string alright with my middle, followed by the thumb on the 5th string. ("Did-dy, Did-dy"). Now I am trying to get at the 2nd string with my middle. I keep muting it, as I am trying not to play both the 2nd and the 1st together. Should I be depressing the string and then lifting the finger to sound it or what? It seems to require a different way of playing it than the 1st string, as I can just strum down. Do I need to strum down and then up or something?
