Smoke On The Water Riff lesson

Where better to start than Smoke on the Water? An easy riff, ideal for beginners. I’ve always used this as a starting point when teaching other people guitar. Most people play the first (power) chord as strings 3 and 4 open as opposed to the way he shows it but either way gives you the correct sound. He also give a little bit of info in inverted power chords!
