The Swing Rhythm
Another variation on the triplet rhythm is the swing rhythm, produced by slightly delaying the up-strum within an eighth note rhythm pattern. The rhythm is counted the same as the rhythm in the previous example except an up-strum is used on the count "a". This rhythm is often used on a song with a faster tempo. Listen to the recording to get the feel for this rhythm.
