Double stop on two neighbouring strings
A pure technical exercise, no chord or scale involved: play two notes at once on two adjacent strings (G and B strings), making sure both ring out with equal intensity.
Tips
Strike both strings with a single pick motion, not one after the other: a double stop should sound like one two-note attack, not a fast arpeggio.
