In this lesson we're going to learn a technique that's fundamental to country guitar style playing. It's called Walking Into a Chord. It will help spice up your rhythm playing chord strumming.
In this technique you stop strumming a chord, leave enough space at the end of a measure in order to use some low bass notes to "walk" from one chord into the next chord.
This is a way of adding detail to your playing that makes the next chord sound like it naturally evolves into the next chord that happens. Everything automatically sounds connected & like it
belongs in the music!
I'm sure you'll recognize the sound of this classic bass movement when you hear it, and in this tutorial we're going to incorporate it into your right hand strumming & left hand fingering. This can be a bit tricky at first, but once you get it down you basically have a full one-man-country band in just your right hand.
