This bonus video is taken from level 4 of my full length Beginner Electric course. Check it out here.

Dive into the world of indie rock with this Stone Roses inspired jam track that combines simple lead playing with fundamental chord progressions. This style is perfect for learning essential skills while exploring the influential Manchester sound.

  • Lead line pattern: using first and third fingers on the G string with specific rhythm

  • Syncopated rhythm (for lead lines): off-beat timing that creates the characteristic indie feel

  • Chord progression: D, G, and A major with both full chords and power chord options

  • The Rule of "3 and a tail" structure: common format of repeated sections in a Riff or Lead part plus the ending so it loops

  • Amp settings: adding chorus and light overdrive for authentic indie rock tone

Stone Roses and similar bands use simple but effective lead lines that are perfect for developing your single-note skills. The lesson shows how basic techniques can create compelling musical parts when combined with the right rhythm and feel.
