Hi, as a keys player, Ive never understood 2 electric guitars. is it for a bigger fuller sound? what does the other guitar do if one is for the lead? thanks

[@harrygibson1883]

Exactly that: one for lead parts, one for mostly sticking to chords. In this video they seem to swap over half way through which is cool

Did watching this answer your question?

upper guitar : lead, lower guitar : rythm

[@guitarechochamber6243]

Consider that the most prominent music for most of the past couple thousand years has been orchestral. More or less 100 instrumentalists coming together to create a unified sound. Lead typically has the recognizable parts. Rhythm (or guitar 2+) provides harmonies, chords, bass, mids, and/or, as the name implies, rhythm. Commonly, this will be chords, power chords (something about the way amps and sound work mean less notes = more sound in a sense), lines that are intended to be more felt than heard, and rhythm which emphasizes the beat and/or what the drums are doing, which sort of creates a link between drums and guitar. In essence: more sound and more glue to hold everyone else’s sound together. Plus, between lead and rhythm, sometimes switching effects (think heavy metal with a lot of distortion vs clean) can take too much tap dancing with the pedals and it is quicker to trade parts. As an example, check “get lucky” lead vs rhythm or something like that. “The Joy” also has a good example I think.

Is the bottom one lead?

[@EGSource]

No, it’s actually the top, but a lot of times both guitars (even “rhythm guitar”) has some guitar parts. For the channel and other videos, the bottom one is always rhythm or EG2
