Looking For Some Easy Ways To Create Emotions In Your Songs?
Change Your Strumming You can make the same chord progression sound different just by changing your strumming. The following examples are in the key of G.
1. Change the NUMBER of times you strum each chord.
2. Change the VOLUME of your strumming.
3. Change the SPEED of your strumming.
Start playing this chord progression slowly and then increase the speed.
This is called increasing the tempo.
Change the Number of Chords Change the number of chords in your progression
Play only three chords but continue to strum each chord four times.
This chord progression will feel like it keeps rolling along because three is an odd number.
Play Major Chords to Create a BRIGHT and HAPPY Sound
Chords 1, 4, and 5 are Major chords.
To create a feeling of HAPPINESS strum a Major chord LOUDLY and to create a feeling of peace strum it softly.

If the guitar is a little fuzzy to you this will give you a clearer picture:
Do you have the ambition to play the guitar, but you can't quite piece it all together?
In Using the Code you’ll discover the simple code that you can use to play the guitar.
You'll use it to make up your own songs, solos and riffs up and down the guitar neck, jam with other people and figure out how to play simple songs, solos and riffs by ear.
You don’t need to read notes.
You don’t need to read tab.
You don’t need any experience.
I’ve spent the last four years trying to find ways to learn scales with chords, riffs, etc. This hasn’t happened until I researched your work and purchased your book.
You have taken difficult learning methods and composed your own more understandable learning techniques.
It's the best learning tool I have discovered in bookstores or the internet.
You have done wonders in helping people like me to better understand the guitar.

"When I saw the book I thought oh it’s just another book. You know I've looked at a lot of books and they basically remind me that I need to practice various chord patterns and shapes and notes, it’s all about practice, but with Jesse’s book, it allowed me to practice in a more effective way that really benefited my guitar playing."
"It brought all those things that I thought were vastly beyond my abilities down to my level of understanding so that I could apply them and improve my skills."
"I think it’s a great way to start if you’ve never played because you can just use this whole formula that he’s developed to enhance you’re playing and to learn."

I give you an 8 week complete money back guarantee, so if you decide it's not what you're looking for I'll give you your money back.
If you've been reading a bunch of books trying to “figure it out” (that’s what I did, it took me years) and you're still confused, just check out the code and see if it clears anything up for you. You have nothing to lose.
