Multiple Pick Strokes

The next example uses a 6-stroke picking pattern. Use all downstrokes. This pattern uses 6 downstrokes over an 8-beat pattern. This leaves you the space of 2 beats to change chords.

The timing of the pattern looks like this:

'G' Power Chord: 'D' Power Chord:

Example 17 -- Five pick strokes over G / D Progression
