Creative Percussive Guitar Part 1 Hey Fernando, If you're new to percussive guitar playing you'll get a lot out of this lesson. The number one rule I always follow is to let the percussive elements enhance the guitar parts. This means that when I break down a percussive arrangement for guitar I don't allow the percussion element overpower anything I'm doing on the fingerboard. I'm a guitarist first…not a percussionist, and I don't pretend to be! Many times the rhythmic aspect of the song will dictate where I "sneak" in any percussive parts. It doesn't have to be much either. Just a knock or slap can add a nice touch to keep the momentum moving forward in a song. In example 1, I'm simply using my knuckles against the strings of the guitar to create a backbeat on 2 & 4. Using a fingerstyle technique this is fairly simple. Ex.1 E|--3--------3--3-------3-------3--3--------| B|--3--------3--3-------3-------3--3--------| G|--0---X---0--0---X---0---X--0--0---X------| D|--0--------2--2-------0-------2--2--------| A|--2--------3--3-------2-------3--3--------| E|--3--------------------3------------------| In example 2, I'm using a combination of slapping with my fingerstyle (Right) hand and my fretting (Left) hand. My right hand slaps on beats 2 & 4 while my left hand slaps the fingerboard on the "and" of 3.
