Beautiful Chords … with Simple (percussive) Technique
Hey guys, let me show you how to play beautiful chords with this simple percussive technique. The percussive guitar is one of the most exciting things you can learn that will spice up chords and melodies; however, it could be challenging at first.
In this guitar lesson I am going to do my best to show you the two most simple percussive approaches I know on guitar:
- Thumb slap: Strike the bass strings with the thumb.
- Thumb slap & Strum: Same as thumb slap but with a strum on the top three strings (G, B, and E).
The chord progression we are going to learn today is lovely and straightforward to play. We will learn two shapes, a minor shape for the B minor chord and a major shape for the G, D, and A major chord. The chords will be played with two notes only.
I hope this lesson helps you with percussive technique. Remember that you can still play the chords without the percussion, just in case you like the chords but don’t care about the percussion 🙂
