Glad to hear you mention Snarky Puppy!! Their sound guy is a genius.

great lesson as always -- could be cool to demonstrate this concept with a loop pedal. for example, playing a loop of the base chords and then playing a melody over top, and/or going back to the original chords and represent CA's strumming power chord 1-5 pattern then CB's 1-3 on top, etc. Basically it would allow you to show what each person is doing separately in these cases with one guitar

That’s straight up Blackbird by the Beatles on those 1&3 intervals...more or less anyway.

Yep, that's all that song really is, just moving though chords with the open G all the time. Open G works because it's the 1 of the whole key, there are even a few chords that aren't in the key that sound okay because G functions in them somehow.
