The synergy that results from two simple guitar parts played together
well is one of my favorite aspects of surf music. You don't have to be
a virtuoso; in fact maybe its better sometimes if you are not - just
keep it clean and simple. An example might be "Perfida". Played alone,
the melody and rhythym parts sound OK - together they sound great! Its
impossible to come close to that with just one guitar, even with a
bass. Too bad that playing rhythym guitar is becoming somewhat of a
lost art, IMO.
