Are you sure about this? You don't mean index, ring and pinky?
For me, it would feel very unnatural to use middle and pinky only one fret apart; my ring finger would feel squeezed in.
As for --8--10--12--, I would normally use index, middle and pinky; although occasionally, when coming from another shape on another string, I might use ring finger for 10th fret. Whichever feels most natural in that context.
HungryForHeaven,
yeah your right, i meant index, ring and pink (1 ,3 ,4 ) ,those finger names are annoying and in hebrew they are even more annoying
and thats exactly why i asked, it seems as if each player has a different approach.

I think for me, 8-10-12 would be 1-2-4 fingers, and I'm more comfortable using 1-3-4 fingers for 8-10-11, though guys like Paul Gilbert I believe tend to favor 1-2-3 for 8-10-11.
So I think it's up to you. As long as it's comfortable and not holding you back technically then it should be cool. But maybe try a few different fingerings and see what feels good to you. Though once you find one that works I would stick with it so not to be confused finger wise etc.
Matt Warnock Guitar,
great info, thanks.
i as well think one should stick to a certain way.
