Learn How To Play New Wave Guitar: guitartricks.c...
New Wave music, born out of the late '70s and early '80s, is a genre that blends rock, pop, and electronic music. Bands developed unique sounds that still inspire musicians today. If you're looking to capture that distinctive New Wave guitar style, here's a quick guide to get you started.
1. New Wave Guitar Tone
The New Wave guitar tone is clean, bright, and often a bit chorused or delayed. You'll want to start with a clean amp setting, then add some chorus, delay, and a touch of reverb to get that lush, expansive sound. Compression can also help to even out your playing and add sustain.
2. New Wave Guitar Riff Techniques
New Wave guitar riffs often feature intricate techniques that give the music its signature sound.
Arpeggiating Chords: Instead of strumming full chords, try picking out the notes individually in a flowing pattern. This creates a more textured and melodic sound.
Ornamenting Open Chords: Add small embellishments like hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides to open chords to make them more interesting and dynamic.
Playing Smaller Shapes Up the Neck: Use partial chords and smaller shapes higher up the neck. This not only sounds cool but also keeps the sound light and airy.
Playing Linearly Up and Down the Neck: Move your fingers along the neck (across frets) rather than just across it (across strings). This creates smooth, flowing lines that are a hallmark of New Wave music.
Intervals on (G,B) (B,E) Strings: Play intervals like 3rds and 4ths on these string pairs. It adds a harmonic richness that's essential to the style.
Use Open Strings: Let open strings ring out for a jangly, resonant sound.
Power Chords: Don’t forget the classic power chords, especially for more driving, punk-influenced songs.
3. New Wave Guitar Rhythm
Rhythm is key in New Wave guitar playing. Focus on these techniques to nail the style:
Syncopation: This is where you emphasize off-beats or unexpected beats, creating a more dynamic and engaging rhythm.
Anticipation: Play chords or notes slightly ahead of the beat. This gives the music a sense of forward motion and excitement.
By combining these tonal, technical, and rhythmic elements, you'll be well on your way to capturing that classic New Wave guitar sound. Now, grab your guitar and start experimenting with these techniques. Happy playing!

Sounds like the idea is to play around with the guitar instead of play the guitar.
