Suspicious Minds

Elvis Presley Begin Tutorial
Description

In this tutorial we are going to learn how to play "Suspicious Minds" as performed by Elvis Presley. This classic track features an up tempo feel that changes halfway through, and then comes back up for a huge outro that fades out the track. At the center of the song, guiding the whole track, is a telecaster electric guitar using a variety of cool techniques with a simple clean tone. These include some hybrid picking, some steady rhythm playing during the choruses, and strong, rhythm guitar playing on the back beat in 6/8 time along with arpeggios during the bridge.
