Rhythm Guitar Course Roadmap


Guitar Chord Bootcamp: Open Chords teaches you the most important ‘open guitar chords’: chords that are relatively easy to play and sound great. You’ll learn tricks to remembering them all and put in some solid practice switching between them by playing a whole bunch of songs. Next, you choose between two directions. If you’ve mastered barre chords, you can expand your chord library even more with ‘Guitar Chord Bootcamp: Barre and Beyond’, which teaches you to play chords all over the neck. You can also learn about the most important strumming patterns in ‘Strumming Skills Bootcamp’. It’ll teach you the proper struming technique that makes strumming feel easy and natural. Of course, you’ll be playing a lot of songs as well in order to practice everything you’re learning. Cool thing: if you have a capo, you can play all of these songs with just open chords.
