Hey Scorpius--
I guess a purist might tell you:
index = 12th fret
middle= 13th fret
ring = 14th fret
pinky = 15th fret
And why not try it that way? Tricky and painful maybe, but it gets the lotion going in the fingers anyway. Me, I'm really not much of a purist. Sometimes, but rarely. You have to go with what works for you.
For this riff, I use:
index = 12th fret
middle = 14th fret on the D string, ring on the E string.
pinky = 15th fret

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.
It's not what you can't do. It's how you play what you already know.
