This kind of chordal texture is distinct from the all-quarter-notes "straight-four"/"four-to-the-bar" approach that also has its place in the toolbox of the jazz guitarist. It sounds different as well from the big back-and-forth strumming that is so natural to guitar in other styles. Here we look at a couple of key elements in a normal "comp" and try some exercises that can help us get off the ground with this kind of chording rhythm.
