Open Position Power Chords, Pt.IV - 12 Bar Blues

In the last few posts I discussed open position power chords and the various ways that they can be utilized in lessons. These simple chords can be played using only one finger and are a gateway to playing the basic blues/rock patterns. 

Last month open position power chords were taken to the next level by incorporating a shuffle rhythm. This month we’ll plug those chords and rhythm into a basic 12 Bar Blues pattern. Students can continue to use a continuous down strum for the shuffle rhythm in order to facilitate the ease of playing.
