Topic: Pratice rythm guitar

Hey
I was wondering if anyone knew some good pratice for rythm guitarist. something easy
but not just 4 chords over and over. Also some simple lead but very simple

The problem with the world is people having lack of commen sense...and warning labels. So if we remove warning labels the problem will fix itself.

Re: Pratice rythm guitar

Play whatever songs you want, whatever rhythms you want, but do it with a metronome.   Set the metronome WAAAAAY slower than you would normally play the song.  Be careful and intentional about the rhythm you choose to play.  Slowly increase the speed until you are playing the rhythm cleanly and effectively faster than you would normally play it. 

As you become proficient at a given rhythm pattern doing this, then spend about half of your practice time that you dedicate to this particular drill reviewing and "brushing up" known rhythms and about half with new rhythms that you're working on. 

You'll get the patterns down that way.
