Bang Bang – Guitar Lesson

In this lesson, our instructor J.J. Patishall breaks down the musical side of Bang Bang in a way that's easy to follow, even if you’re not familiar with its high-energy vibe.

The Am7 and Bm7 both are in place to support the groove, especially in the chorus sections. J J goes over each chord slowly, showing you finger placement and offering tips on how to make the transitions easier. This lesson focuses on how to keep the playing clean, especially since the feel of the song depends heavily on groove.

Rhythm-wise, there’s a strong focus on muted strumming and syncopation. The strumming pattern is a little tight and percussive. J J breaks this down in a way that even if you're new to syncopation, you’ll get the hang of it with a little practice.
