It's Mike from Killer Guitar Tips with another Mini Guitar Lesson for you. Hope you've been PRACTISING your guitar. To be a great guitar player it doesn't just happen it evolves with practice, but its not enough just to practice, you need to practice the right things! I know this sounds blatantly obvious but you'll be surprised at how many people simply practise what they like to play even though this could be teaching them BAD habits. Well my friend CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are in the minority. You're in the select 5% of people who will practice the correct methods and techniques that will help to catapult your guitar playing into hyperspace. So stay tuned... Let's get straight on with this mini guitar lesson... We'll start of with a really cool chord progression that's really cool to play pentatonic riffs over the top of when you're jamming with a friend, with no effort at all it will make you sound like a great player! So here it is:- One bar each of A, G, D, A. keep playing it through whilst your friend solos in Am pentatonic at the fifth fret!! Now try swopping roles. You play the solo in Am and your friend play the chords. Whilst you play, just listen to yourself sounding like a top pro guitarist! You can turn up at any venue with this progression in your bag of tricks and sound like a real pro... Just takes a little practice ideally with a friend. Moving on from this we will take a look at another great little chord progression that is the backbone of many great songs. It is a 4 bar sequence that repeats itself over and over again and is commonly known as the 'turnaround'. Lets take a closer look at this so here goes: Play the 1st bar G, the second is Em, the 3rd is C and the last is a bar of D. Play the rhythm of 4 beats to a bar and repeat this turnaround to your hearts content. Again this is a superb jam sequence. Why not get your friends to jam along to it in the key of G. You play the rhythm and they solo over the top then change around, you solo they play rhythm. Don't forget that my full guitar audio/video course is loaded with lots of amazing chord sequences that will allow you to lay down great sounding rhythm guitar that will astound your friends and rock your audience!
