All you need to know before starting this course are a few basic chords (including barre chords) and the ability to change between them confidently. As the course progresses you will learn how to read and perform various basic strumming patterns whilst adding various percussions alongside them
It is recommended you spend a week practising each of the modules before moving on to the next but depending on how difficult or easy you find the tasks you can move on at your own pace.
All examples are written in TAB and NOTATION and explained along the way. You are welcome to write in the comments section for advice in case you get stuck.
You will also need an acoustic guitar because this technique doesn't work at all on electric ones ;0 If your acoustic guitar has a THIN or small body it will absolutely affect the sound of the percussion so something with a full-sized body (or bigger) is recommended.
