Yep Sure @Mark76 you can use your pinky. There is always a balance going on between how I can play and how I want to play. It is fun to be able to get something sounding good. I encourage you to continue to stretch your fingers because as your playing becomes more complex you will really appreciate the ability to grab that 2nd note with your ring finger. If that stretch is too much right now at the second/fourth frets, as a primer, move the whole thing up to fret 12/14 where the frets are closer together and begin working your way down to the wider spaced frets.
