Description

The electric guitar augments the acoustic with some comping. The first half of the verse, you are just playing single strums with triads based off the chord progression. Then you switch to double stops that outline the chords, and you strum along and pop out some single notes as well. The rhythm figure on the single notes needs to match the feel of the groove, so be sure to swing those upstrokes!
