A super cool trick used in Neo-Soul guitar parts is the “chord quake” or “slip and slide”. In Example 5b, play a Major 9 chord shape and slide from each chord tone to one fret below and back again. You can apply this technique to any chord shape, not just the Major 9 chords shown in this example.

Example 5b

We’ve seen that a common trick used in Neo-Soul is to palm-mute chord shapes. Gently rest your picking hand across the strings near the bridge and don’t push too hard on the strings. A soft palm mute works really well for this style of chordal work.

In the groove below there is a “call and response” pattern: two bars are palm muted and two bars are played with the chords allowed to ring out.
