When you play rhythm guitar on electric guitar, sometimes the good old open chords are exactly what's needed, but often you'll have another guitar already playing those chords. So why play exactly the same thing? Here are five ways that you can improve your rhythm guitar playing on electric guitar including rhythm, space, hammer on's, walks, inversions, triads, voicings and more!

Thank you! That's great to hear!
I’m a middling player and have gotten good mileage out of the following:
Another variation on an easy D chord is x0077x.
Play it with the middle and ring finger.
Turn your hand slightly and move the ring finger up one fret to xx078x and it’s an easy G chord.
Pretty easy to go from the D x0077x to the A at x0765x.
Or just x00650 for another quick A position.
Or slide from that G position above to x009(10)x and it’s a quick passing A.
Another favorite D is x00(11)(10)x.
All of these lend themselves to arpeggiation.
Yeah I love that D chord too! Thanks for posting.
These are exactly the lessons needed for many people.
There is so much more to rhythm guitar than people are understanding when it comes to playing electric guitar along side of someone playing acoustic.
Take for example, many of these classic 60's rock songs. Watch the rhythm playing on these electric guitars and you will see exactly what I'm talking about.
Thank you so much for your videos. More like this definitely needed :)
Thank you that's great to hear! Indeed that's true about a lot of the classic songs and the rhythm guitar parts.
All good points. EVH was a master of this. Often only playing 3 or 2 notes in the rhythm sections really helped make his simple 3-piece band (plus a vocalist - but just 3 instruments) sound huge. You rarely saw him playing big-ass 6 string barre chords or full open position cowboy chords. I think too many guitarists in a band play the same way they do when they are playing by themselves and trying to create a full accompaniment sound with just the guitar.
Thank you! EVH is a good example of that for sure.
You explain this so well Blue. Thank you 🎸
Thank you! Much appreciated!
INCREDIBLE! “Kind of” had a sense of these things, but to hear them explained so clearly is very “confirming” helpful!
Thank you! Glad it helped!
It's 1am. I'm a beginner guitar player. My phone send me the notification fkr this video, but ive never heard of this channel. I'm also Canadian so I opt to check it out. A few minutes in and I'm subscribing and itching to wstch another, but it's 1am and I have work in the morning. You did such a wonderful job explaining things, and I had a couple aha moments. Thank you!

Thanks for the advices how to play open chord and triads at different position of the guitar for more than one guitarist playing in a band.

Fun rhythm is so challenging! Great tips! Thank you!
Or, you could do what the late, great Michael Karoli (from Can) would sometimes do: not play, just stand there on stage, until he thought he could contribute something to the song. I wish I had come up with that brilliant trick myself years ago.
Indeed, not playing is sometimes a good option for a verse :)
Another great video
Glad you enjoyed it

Glad you're enjoying it. More coming :)
We have a small band - bass, 2 acoustics and myself on electric - and we try to keep the sound 'as wide as possible' with one guitar on open chords, one including a fair bit of melody/soloing - and myself on barre chords higher up the neck; I'm usually playing between the 5th and 15th frets, with a simpler rhythm and a fill here or there - and then chorus's will usually see us all on the same shape, at the start, to make it boom!
That's a good idea when you have multiple guitars. No need to all play the same thing :)
You teach really well man
Thank you!! 😀
Freaking useful!!!
Glad to hear it!
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day also my favorite year is 2010 2011 2014 also 2016 to be honest in general ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you! You too!
@12:40 is something that I understand. 🎉
Awesome thanks for watching 🎸
i know its sorta silly but can you do a vid on ..
where to wear your guitar .. some of these are hysterically low.
but i do realize when I stand up, i gotta adjust my strap or its like wearing a neck tie.
Interesting idea, thank you! It would be a little different for me, but I've been thinking about doing a Q&A video soon and maybe I include it in that.
Just experiment, I have it before my belly-button, someplace. You could twist the guitar for lead parts, better,sccess to the high or low frets...
From what I remember - a lot of players back in the 60s and 70s kept the guitar quite high with a strap - and I tend to do the same as it makes it very comfortable for playing higher up the neck. It also helps when I'm playing pop or folk to have the neck horizontal and when I switch to jazz, I just rotate the neck up for easier access to big barre chords.
Frankly I just played one of my acoustic guitars for the first time in years and think the the open chords are easier to play on an acoustic that are Barre chords. (At least for me)
Definitely open chords are easier, and especially on acoustic. I agree.
Whats the name of your band?I want to hear yall
Thanks!
Cool thanks for the extra support!
