Description
In this tutorial we'll take the basic barre chord shapes we learned in a previous tutorial and practice them in a rock rhythm guitar style.
We’ll start by practicing these barre shapes by adding more rhythmic subdivisions to our strumming. This will add to the complexity and difficulty, giving us more to think about while we play. We’ll add some rhythmic emphasis to certain strums to provide variety. We’ll also experiment with strumming sets of strings instead of strumming all of them every time.
As usual we’ll have a lot of opportunities to play these new rhythm patterns along with a backing track so you’ll be ready to use them in your own rock rhythm guitar playing.
This tutorial assumes you already know the basics of barre chords. So, if you don't, I encourage you to work through my earlier tutorial. If you’re ready for the next level, then let’s get started!
