Description

Open chords are often overshadowed by more advanced concepts, but when used right they’re one of the most epic tools we have in our rock rhythm and riff vocabulary. In this tutorial we’ll explore three open chord voicings used in rock and you’ll see just how much stadium-worthy mileage you can get out of these relatively simple building blocks.

I’ll be using my Les Paul for these examples going through an old Ampeg tube head with a little bit of reverb, but you can play the examples on any guitar and amp combination. The most important thing is that you need less gain than you may think for these open chords to hit as hard as musically possible!
