Pop in G (4 chords) — arpeggios
Unlike this same grid's fingerstyle version (also level 2), where the thumb stays dedicated to the bass while the fingers pick the treble strings, this simple arpeggio doesn't split roles between the fingers: each chord note is picked in order, with no fixed assignment. It's a different technical entry point, not an easier version of the same thing.
Tips
Don't try to assign a fixed finger to a specific string: unlike fingerstyle, the finger order can stay free here.
Play each chord slowly, one note at a time, before looking for fluency.
If you've already worked this grid's fingerstyle version, consciously compare the two right-hand feels: they're less alike than they might seem.
