Ac/dc Style Rythm And Solo Options

[Gert1973]

Hello Monica,

I have been studying and practising the rythm part of this lesson. Everything is clear to me. Except one little thing I can not get my hands on 100%.

Slow video number 5: The 4th bar starts with the E-powerchord one downstroke not muted (quarter note). Then you have a pause before you have 13 downstrokes (eight notes) and build up the sound from muted to totally unmuted.

It's the pause between the quarter note and the first 8 note where I have some trouble with. I can not seem to find the right timing. I tried out some things like counting measures but I can not find it. I try to 'feel' the pause and most of the times I get it right. But I'm guessing there must be another way to always get the perfect start of the 13 'eight notes' downstrokes.

Have a good day!

Gert

Hi Monica,

Here's a new take of the AC/DC lesson at 70bpm (10 more then the previous one )



Analysis:
12: unwanted string noise
13: unwanted string noise
0-58: the strumming part goes well again
59-1.04: this part needs some improvement
1.05-1.28: no issues spotted
1.36: missed 1 upstroke
1.44-1.48: those bends are going good I think
1.57: no raking

I'm happy with this take. The mistakes I made do not happen all the time so they are not big issues. Just the middle part 59-1.04 needs some work.

Await your feedback!
