Rock Out!!!




ROCK



First, you must know rock songs, try to find as many you can rock song, and try to listen to that song, listen the riff, the lead, the rhythm, and the beat.

Second, you must know the basic rock progression, rock is similar with blues, rock have the same basic progression like 12 bar blues, at How To Play Blues, strum your guitar, and try to counting one, two, three, every chord that you played, because its really important to keep the tempo, try to not out of tempo, if you out of tempo, try to back to the first tempo, it will help you.

Third, basic rock riff, pressing down on fourth fret of your guitar, and then release it quickly while fingering the A Major Chord in bar position, with your left index finger, holding the first, second, third, and fourth strings on your guitar, this is called hammering the bass.

Fourth, learn the power chords, power chords really useful in rock, a famous band like AC/DC, Nirvana, Rolling Stones, its often to using power chords, like A5, D5, E 5, and many more, only with two grips you can make a really rock or metal sound with power chords, so learn the power chords.

Fifth, try to make a song with the chords, the progression chords, and the rock riff, make a good song with the lyric too.

final word, keep exercise, fingering exercise, teoric exercise, and the practice of course.


Good Luck!!!
