Open Chords: Rhythm and Embellishments

Description

Here's a lesson that will challenge you a little more with an embellishment that uses more than one finger to execute. Don't worry, though, because you'll find a trick that you can use with the A and B chords that is really popular with guitarists. You simply move the same chord shape up two frets when moving from A to B.

Make a note that we are substituting a "B" chord for the usual "B7" we've used often in the Key of E. You'll find this substitution gives this progression a feel found in music by such artists as the Rolling Stones, Zeppelin, and the Counting Crows.
