Chuckie Busa said:4/4 is most common is Roots Rock. The key to reggae that I have noticed is that the guitars strums are on the up beat. So if you count 1-2-3-4, 1 and 2 and 3 and 4. You strum between the counts, basically where the "and" is. I would suggest for practice taking a few old classic reggae songs and looping them in your sequencer and playing behind them. Drums, guitar, etc.... It helps get the theory down.
