Beginner Level: Rhythm Guitar Basics - Part 1



Part One of this video lesson covers the basics of quarter-note and eighth-note rhythms. The focus is simple strum patterns. Part two of this Rhythm Guitar Series (available off of the Creative Guitar Studio website), examines syncopation and anticipation in rhythmic feel. If these terms are unfamiliar to you; Syncopation is the accenting of weaker up-beats. And Anticipation, is the act of placing a chord just before where you would expect to hear it.
