Description
I continue to get lots of requests for more rhythm guitar lessons. This lesson demonstrates some different voiceings that you can use in the key of E or the key of A. These are very simple to play and something that an absolute beginner should be able to do. There is no tab with this lesson as I thought it was simple enough that it didn’t require it. Let me know if that’s not the case and I’ll create it.

Brilliant! Loving your rythum lessons, just bought your funk blues rythum course as well. Keep it up mate 🙂
Awesome thanks man!
I like it because the chord variation sound to melodious
Great lesson thanks,reminded me of the Who’s Pin ball wizard,sort of.
thanks sounds like fun!!
Hey Brian, really cool stuff. Not sure what that ‘F’ chord is, it seems to be close to an Fmaj7…maybe. It reminds me of some great flamenco players who would push up from the E, play very briefly and come back to the E again. Really interesting sound.
I also noticed a similar thing happens when you move up to the A position. By accident I moved to G sharp and then quickly pushed up to the A and it sounded pretty cool.
Nice stuff.
Me, a stiff-ass-dutchman, gets really loose in practising your lessons.
Just 1 year with the guitar and going 55, but it’s awsome. Due to your lessons. I wanna thank you !!!!!!!
By the way, what would you advise me to buy if also wanted to learn some nice classic rock licks ? Because the strumming on a accoustic works well, but with the electric ( in a sense of playing a lick ) I need some support.
The closest thing I have to what you’re wanting is the blues lead guitar course - hope that’s what you’re looking for.
Hi Brian, very nice useful stuff, thanks for posting it.
The “weird F” is used a lot in Spanish music (from Spain). I learned that about 17 ages ago while learning Malagueña, an old Spanish classic.
Yep, I think I learned it in Malaguena too - would have never thought of that, thanks for the reminder
Very cool lesson,As a beginner, your free lessons and the $5 charge for the tabs are just right for me,thanks
I just paid the $5.00 for the Blues / Rock sound Track and then I went back to the website and I could not find it again to down load it.
Hey Blaine, I just responded to you privately via email to explain so that we don’t go back and forth on this page. Check your email 🙂
apreaciate the free lesson ive been playing for 40 years and self tought you have shown me how much I missed out on with lessons. The little things mean a lot thenks

So simple, sounds great, really cool.
Amazing works great
Brian, I love your stuff! If I lived in the States you would be my teacher, no doubt about that. Thanks for all of your inputs I am learning now and getting somewhere. Dr Paul UK.
Hey, Brian.
Just paid my fivr. Love your site.
This is a great example of what I call repurposing cord shapes.
I created a finger picking song that uses the second pattern that starts with the A7. My creation avoids the open G string entirely, and uses the open A as a constant beat. Cool! try it.

Hi Brian What finger is the root note? Great lesson.
@melmount - Not sure I understand your question?
Hi Brian i can hear a bit of supertramp in this lesson thanks for your lessons and time
hi brian you have maid me happy i was felling quite down in myselfe ive just had 3 heart atacs iv come upon your lessons by chance uve lifted my heart again ive piced up my guitar im playing the blues agin thanks man COLIN
Brian: How do I know where I can use pattern A versus pattern B? Are they interchangeable depending upon the sound that I want or are they based in 5th versus 6th string rooted chords?
Thanks.
They’re totally interchangeable
It sounds like Extreme - Hole Hearted
10 years on and I have just come upon this in my “Really Useful” box. Still is !
