fotoajojo10th July 2010thanks for a cool lesson and for adding notes on pedals and setup that helps a lot. Maybe one day, a lesson on how Keith plays in open G with the low E-string taken off the guitar?

Cool job man! I sometimes feel sorry that lessons like this will probably not be played as much as they deserve, because they end up in the huge croud of GMC lessons ![]()

fkalich29th July 2010Nice, sounds like them. Very good job covering his style, don't think it can be topped.
Marc Simon28th September 2010I'm not sure if you'll still read this, but to refer to kaznie_NL's post: This kind of lesson is for me as an advanced beginner just what I needed, you explain the principles of chords and song structure very nice, the little tips you give about details really helped me a lot. I like about your lessons that treat a topic in many different aspects. So, if one doesn't just try to play, but also understand what he's playing, so he can create his own music, your lessons are among the most heplful on this page! And I'm sure there's lots of people of my playing level who need just this. And last but not least it alway sounds cool :-) Thank you!

Hello everybody,
In this lesson, we will cover rhythm work in the style of Keith Richards, guitar player of the Rolling Stones.
The lesson is fairly easy one, as we use mostly powerchords, major chords and suspending them for the distinctive "Stones" sound. It should help you with your rhythm work, and enable you to understand in what way you can combine these chords together to form rhythmic patterns on your own.
As far as theory goes, we will concentrate on pauses between the notes, and suspended 4th chords in this lesson.
For this lesson I used Telecasted guitar on the bridge pickup into Amplitube 3, emulating Mesa Mark III combo.
Let's begin! :)
