He can be lively as in All My Loving
Often his chord changes are loose but add color
He sometimes strums vigorously for emphasis
Maybe not the best, but I like it

"but what about [John Lennon's] guitar playing? Wasn't he one of rock's greatest rhythm guiarsts? Tat claim would be hard to judge from the Beatles' records because John is always hidden inside the mix. You hear Paul on bass, George on lead, Ringo on
drums -- but where is John? It is not until later years, when he struck out on his own, and later still, when his demos came floating to the surface, that you could finally judge Lennon as a guitarist. And then two things are unmistakable: he plays
with an iron-fingered rigidity that summons up visions of Parkinson's Disease, and when he departs from rudimentary strumming to essay melodic figures, he betrays a clumsy ineptitude."
