Maybe you should learn, "The Stroke" by Billy Squier first. That should help your stroking.

Just make sure you aren't pushing up to high with your finger on A(2).

you could leave the high e open, might hurt your hand a little more, but it gives it fuller sound.

"The Stroke" by Billy Squier is terrible...the video is not much better either.

I'm a much better stroker than Billy Squier

It's all about the stroking of the shaft.
