In this second part of the lesson, now that you can play the strum hand on its own, you can now add the fret hand.

The video shows fret hand and strum hand at slow and full speeds. You can use the video and voice guidance to learn, or you can use the learning steps in the bottom right. The steps break down the piece into small bits and each step, like step two above, has a slow speed video clip. Whichever way of learning suits you best, by the end of this part of the lesson you’ll be able to play the La Bamba accompaniment fairly steadily. The next stage is to practise it and build up speed, which is what you do in the next part of the lesson.
