Riff of the Day: Low (Cracker)

Time for a non-Rush riff. This is the intro/verse guitar part.

It's a neat little two-bar strum, good for working on string-skipping with the right hand:

Most of the work in the riff is on the right (picking) hand; keep it going in a steady 16th-note strum and focus on keeping it loose. Keep in mind that you're not hitting strings on every stroke and let the two open strings ring cleanly.
