In this guitar techniques video, we'll break down the sound and guitar stylings of Status Quo, analyse their distinctive tuning, and how they use a shuffle blues style to create a driving, energetic sound that was responsible for sending Glastonbury into a frenzy (were you there?). Leigh will also go over the specifics of the Status Quo guitar tuning - Open G. This tuning (D, A, D, G, B, D) is essential to getting that classic Status Quo sound, and we'll show you how to tune your guitar to match.
Next, we'll delve into the Status Quo blues shuffle style, and show you how to play it on guitar. This is a key element of the Status Quo sound, and something that all fans of the band will want to learn. We'll also cover how Status Quo use 6ths intervals in their riffs, and demonstrate this with an example from one of their most popular songs, "Down Down." Then, we'll show you how to play a Status Quo inspired style riff using 6ths intervals on guitar.
And finally we'll break down the use of double stop lead guitar phrases in the style of Status Quo. This is a more advanced technique for experienced guitarists, but we challenge you to try!
