The acoustic guitar is frequently used in pop and rock music, but how it is played can change based on whether you are playing solo or with a band. When playing with a band, other elements such as drums and bass are happening, so the guitar parts can be more simple and straightforward. When playing pop and rock solo, it will sound more interesting if you think of how to incorporate various elements of an imaginary band into your parts. Nicholas Veinoglou demonstrates how to add the rhythm of a kick drum and the groove of a bass to help elevate your pop/rock progressions.
