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!

Really useful. ????????
Nice work. I don't really play guitar. But I think that many of the concepts that you covered could well also apply to improve my piano accompaniment.
Really cool ????
Same key,different tone.????????
Good idea.Tnks
Brilliant
If it's a secret like the title suggests, why are you telling everybody, I wouldn't like to tell you a secret, you'd tell everyone, I'd be in the divorce court tomorrow.
Great lesson as usual , but I'm still at lost to why do you have a pile of books on the floor ????
Whats the name of your band?I want to hear yall
Love this….teaches soooooo much!!! Thank you!!!!
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)
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!
Thanks!
Excellent tips. Thanks!
Simply brilliant…
You teach really well man
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.
Yet another lesson that hits the spot. I just realised how much of your stuff I’ve found to be really helpful, so have joined your Patreon. Cheers ????
Some great advice for a bass player looking to improve his rhythm playing. ????
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!
Another great video
INCREDIBLE! “Kind of” had a sense of these things, but to hear them explained so clearly is very “confirming” helpful!
Another fantastic lesson Blue and a visit from our little guy at 0:33. Many, many thanks!
Lots of psychology here, too. Many things we never really thought about. Much thanks!
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day also my favorite year is 2010 2011 2014 also 2016 to be honest in general




????????????????????????
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.
Freaking useful!!!
Thank you! Such good content
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.
