  • Comment removed

  • Perfect!! Thank u so much

  • this was fantastic thank you!

  • Thanks sir...ur amazing teacher :)

  • hey hey! Have you thought about the X7 Guitar Mind Implant (do a google search)? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend learned to jam with it.

  • Dude...I love you! Your awesome!

  • i finnally understand!

    

  • I'm using your strum patterns and your teaching is awsome. Thank you, Rock on !!!

  • This is a really good tutorial. Thank you for posting these! 

  • Thanks

    

  • Nice tutorial. Decent

  • thanks so very much... helped out ALOT!!!

  • I think I love you <3

  • Thank you so much I didn't understand strumming patterns till I watched this!!!!!

  • Thanks bud! Since so many of us guitar players are retarded at reading, why not also add the rhythmic notation?!

  • He looks like Kipkay!!! :)

  • I understood the first two Up and Downs, then the rest went out the window. I have very, very bad sense of rhythm.

  • Is it me or is strumming with your hand easier than with a pick? I tend to miss strings when strumming up. I use my thumbnail for strumming up and my other four fingers for strumming down. Any tips?

  • You teach it in the most simple format! :)

  • this was the most helpful video I have ever watched. Thank you so much

  • down down uppuooinf aph rewz_ASE$YHznikmvpf[gl]hr-zryo­mkogjeojpdoighphoigjo;nm;/k h

  • amazing video! you were very clear and communicated your points well, which was unbelievably helpful for me. I just started guitar on my own and it's nice to know that there are a couple key strumming patterns I can learn, because I tried coming up with my own patterns and they were terrible. definitely subscribing to this channel!

  • I might sign up your lesson. I am with guitar nutshell now for six months. $ 49 pretty good deal

  • YOU ARE GOOD.ALSO YOUR GUITAR SOUND SO GOOD. WHAT BRNAD IS IT? I GOT AN EPIPHONE DR 500

  • @pitubg the brand's taylor if i'm not wrong, but i don't know what model that is :/

  • @pitubg It's a Taylor :)

  • I personally don't like the idea of standardizing the way to strum. For example, if you take David Gilmour on Wish You Were Here it is possible to see that he does not necessarily hit the high E during all the strummings. For me standardizing goes against effects creation by the player and sometimes it does not lead to a clear sound.

  • lot of kids tail their strum off and miss out the high string! I do that often and was wondering why my G chord wasnt sounding the same as yours! :P I got it now! thanx man! u're gud!

  • thank you ;-)

  • Thanks you inspire me to continue, this helped me open doors

  • Excellent video! I sure wish I'd had this as a teenager! ^_^

  • This is SO helpful. Thank you.

  • this has been SUPER HELPFUL! thank you so much for the lessons :)

  • Thank you so much for this! :)

  • thank you so much. I learned alot for this tutorial. :D

  • i really really agree with what you've said about the disadvantage of tabs not having strum patterns. i mean, wouldn't really sound like the song you like to play if you had different strumming patterns than the real one..

  • Thank you so much!!!! You have no idea how much you are helping! your vids are great!

  • thank you for the lesson dr. house

  • haha... nicolos cage in thumbnail....hahaha

  • Great points about the importance of timing and rhythm! Thanks for posting!

  • very helpful....thanks...

  • thanks so much for the lesson

  • Awesome! You are really great. But I have one problem - I don't manage to play a pattern and sing at the same time. Then I just play down. Hah.

    thanks, your great !

  • great help...You are a good teacher ! I'm glad I found your channel Sir. 2 thumbs UP!!

  • Fingerstyle is superior.

  • i've always wanted to play the guitar, and i didn't know where to start, been self learning for years, if i found this simple basics sooner, i might have been playing some songs fully, not just intro tabs lol, thanks you're an awesome teacher

  • You are aewsome, Good teacher. I am meeting you very late. Now, I am realizing my guitarist (from whom I learned), how much he was hurry on teaching me.......(haan, he taught me as if like, catching a running train....) !!!! but that was also cool !!!

  • I love it! :D

  • thanks !!!!!

  • I'm just learning to play guitar and never understood strumming until I watched your video. Now I can hear the strumming in other songs and even wrote my own. Thanks!

  • Thanks so much, I learned a lot

  • hii.... very nice lessons..and enthusiasm is excellent..keep rocking..

  • Awesome teaching

  • this helped a lot! you're awesome

  • I learned alot on this one for 5 mins! thanks heaps!!!!!

  • Thank you. I'm going to try this.

  • My fingers hurt, and I am having trouble with some of the chords. ANy suggestions? should keep going, reexamine my finger positioning?

  • thanks!!!! hehe

  • tzada kaau imong guitar.. :) aq na na be? XD

  • Thank you. NIce lesson. I wish teachers agreed on techniques, though. Hard to know who to believe.

  • @mopbrothers Yeah, sometimes different teachers say different things. It gets confusing, but the most important thing to do is to find what's comfortable to you and what you like. Just listen to all teachers whether they are right or wrong and take what you like out of it.

  • Just the opposite of what my teacher says---strum with the wrist, and loosely. The arm doesn't need to go up and down. The wrist can do it. All these differences between teachers.

  • I definitely applied this to playing Ukulele, it really helped me get past playing the same pattern every time I jam. Thanks a lot!

  • Nicholas Cage!

  • very wonderful video and great lesson thanks a lot it really helps me progress my strumming.

    you are an excellent teacher.

  • I'd love to see you do some lessons for Ukulele. :-)

  • thanks m8........

  • Dirk Nowitzki !

  • Hey thank you for this video! Strumming and keeping good time has always been my weak point and this helps so much!

  • Great Lesson! helped me a lot with strumming but i can not get Chords! i havent played guitar before but im guessing chords are very important?? can somebody send me to a good video or something to help me to understand chords?

  • I reckon your probably the best teacher on the internet

  • press 6

  • good lesson

  • aaaawwwssuuummm....!!!!

  • @T3H3PICFAIL3R Press down right before the fret to get the cleanest sound, also make sure your not muting open strings in a chord by accident. The more you play a chord the more comfortable you get with it.
