Leer de akkoorden van Cults of the shadow van Therion op gitaar. Dit metalklassieke nummer uit het album Theli (1996) is perfect om mee te beginnen en vormt een solide basis voor je metalrepertoire. Op Gitaartabs vind je de complete tab die je stap voor stap meeneemt door dit stuk.
Het nummer ligt op beginner-niveau (niveau 2), waardoor je snel resultaat ziet. Je werkt met de akkoorden A, D, E, G, B en F, ondersteund door de tabnotatie die elke noot aanwijst. Pak je gitaar en speel mee met dit Therion-meesterwerk.
Zo oefen je dit nummer
- 1
Oefen de barré-greep B
B is een barré-akkoord. Leg je wijsvinger plat over alle snaren en druk stevig; oefen 'm los tot elke snaar helder klinkt voordat je 'm in het nummer gebruikt.
Openen - 2
Wissel oefenen: B ↔ A
Speel elk akkoord 4 tellen, dan 2, dan 1 — met de metronoom op 60-70 bpm. Voer het tempo pas op als de wissel schoon en op tijd is.
Openen - 3
Mooi startnummer
Focus op zuivere akkoorden — laat elke snaar klinken. Snelheid komt vanzelf als de grepen goed zitten.
