  Which Right-hand finger when plucking the top 3 strings?

Hi,

I'm trying to learn the intro, where you need to fingerpick the first string, followed by the second string, and then the third.


Should the first string be plucked with the the ring finger?

Would it be:

first string: ring finger
second string: middle
third string: index

0r ...

first string: middle finger
second string: index
third string: index

What is the proper way to do this? Using just the middle and index seems to be slightly
easier but I don't mind using the ring finger if that is the better technique.

Is there a general rule regarding which right-hand finger to use on the top three strings?

Thanks -- Raoul
