I dont know what this is, I was just mucking with the composer, but it could possibly teach you a basic minor 1-b3-5 arpeggio that jumps an octave each time up the neck. Drums and Bass courtesy of the groove builder.

2. The Seattle Style (#91) - Page 1 by Jared Wren (391)
When I think of those great Seattle bands from the early 90s like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and others, I think of the interesting harmonies that they used and how they used certain rhythm patterns to create great song...(more)

3. Heather (the Angel) (#10501) - Page 2 by Marcos Macias (706)
The chorus has the same finger picking pattern. The chord are unknown to me. So I just chose some that fit the structure in the key of D with the first chord being a 135 (D) and the second being a 13b6 or 13#5 (unknown to me....(more)

4. The Seattle Style (#91) - Page 2 by Jared Wren (391)
This progression is similar to Alive by Pearl Jam that is just A to G. That same rhythm is used where the G always occurs on the beat before the measure like in measures 2 and 4

5. The Seattle Style (#91) - Page 3 by Jared Wren (391)

6. Rhythm With Fragmented Chords 2 (#1909) - Page 1 by Shane Keller (120)

7. Open-String Power Chords (#181) - Page 1 by Christopher Sung (9297)

8. Alterno-Riff Tune (#197) - Page 1 by Christopher Sung (9297)
Here's a tune I was just fooling around with. Most of the chords have a major 9th stuck in there somewhere (the A, the C and the D). When the G chord is played, I drop the low G on the 6th string, such that the lowest note ...(more)
