http://www.blueslessons.netPlaying “double stops,” means playing on two strings at once. You can
find Double Stops in Blues and Rock´n Roll, from the Stones to Heavy
Metal are the possibilities for this simple technique.
But there are triple stops (three strings) and quadruple stops
(four strings) as well.For a Double Stop you hold two strings with one finger or you use ring
finger and pinky.Recommended songs: Chuck Berry used Double Stops in nearly every song!
See “Johnny Be Goode”, “Roll over Beethoven” and many others!Double Stop Exercises
