Here's the performance video and downloadable audio jam track for Beginner Level 4 - Jam track 1.
Aims
Use the A, E or D minor chords for this jam track
Play along to the off-beat rhythm
Focus on the strum and mute technique
For this jam track, the strumming action is snappy and almost a 'flicking' motion with use of the wrist. This motion is key to getting that Reggae sound, followed by a mute.
This mute allows us to play only on the 'ands' to a count of:
1 - and - 2 - and - 3 - and - 4 - and
Make the strums as short as you can to make it sound really authentic!
