I agree with what AT was saying. For playing lead guitar it's more common to use a flat pick than to finger pick. With respect to which fingers you'll have to figure that out yourself. It boils down to doing what is comfortable for you, and the more you decide for yourself which finger to use the better off you will be to come up with patterns of your own.

(I just saw your post when I submitted this one)
That is something that's ideal for using a pick. But you can still use your fingers, and some people will prefer to use their fingers b/c of the difference in sound. For my preference if i was to play that with my fingers I'd use my thumb, index finger and middle finger, but I usually don't finger pick something like that, so IDK if that is a good or bad way to do that.


If you learn how to play songs, then you learn songs. If you learn how to improvise, then you learn music.
