Just The Tone

Pat Benatar’s Hit Me With Your Best Shot. This classic guitar riff has large jumps of syncopated rhythms giving the guitar riff a heavy sound. It uses what we studio musicians call a slash chord. It’s basically the root note and 3rd so technically it’s not a power chord but often a very popular Rock N Roll pattern.
