This exercise will repeatingly descend a portion of the pentatonic scale:
12th fret15th fret

Pay most attention to the repeating downstroke and upstroke pattern.
Play the pattern:
1. 14th fret, ring finger, down stroke, 3rd string
2. 12th fret, index finger, upstroke, 3rd string
3. 14th fret, ring finger, upstroke, 4th string
4. repeat sequence this pattern ad nauseam
If in question this is the order: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, repeat.
