Here are four full songs for you to practice what you have learned in this first lesson. Each song includes a rhythm part and a lead part and can either be played on the acoustic or on the electric guitar. The lead part is the main part, it’s the melody of the song.
The rhythm part provides the pulse and the harmony and it supports the melody. You can divide these four songs into smaller sections like this. These sections can be looped and slowed down if needed.
You can also mute either part of the song like this. While practicing these songs, remember to bear in mind all we have seen about posture, hand, wrist and fingers positions and always stay as relaxed as possible. It’s your go.
