It is possible to make your guitar sound like two guitars. It all comes down to how we break down the rhythm and melody of a song. Also, we should treat each one of our plucking fingers as an independent speaker capable of playing each note with a different tone and volume.

In this Spanish guitar song, the thumb is the loudest speaker, playing the melody on the bottom strings while the index and middle finger pluck away the notes of the chords with less intensity and volume.

If we can control the volume of each finger, we can create two separate layers between the melody and the chords. It is challenging, but it can be done!

The fingerstyle arpeggio is played with the popular 3-3-2 pattern performed with the thumb, middle, and index finger. I will explain in detail how to develop this pattern in the video, so make sure you don’t skip this part.

I recommend that you don’t go too crazy too soon with this arpeggio. Start at your own pace before you speed up.
