THIS SUCKS. it didn't help AT ALL. your telling us to strum up and down an accent it on beast 1 and 4 and your doing all this other mumbo jumbo crap. YOU SUCK at teaching so TELL US HOW TO DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!

@strumforlove sorry this didn't help you. no need to be angry about it. in the video, i'm counting in six and all i'm doing is perpetual down-up strums to a count of six. start with just down strums. get that to a count of six and then try adding in up strums between all your down strums. then accent beats 1 and 4. i broke down this entire strumming pattern in the simplest elements in this video so take it slow at first and build on each one.

It's the only tutorial on Youtube that helped. lol. How about the strumming pattern for 4/4?

[guitarfriendlynet]

@joenasfanatics I did a video lesson a couple years ago of 4/4 in a two part series. Check it out under my other videos.

hope it helps!

[daviddjportugal]

So when u do the up n down strumming s it DOWN-up-down-DOWN-up-down?

If it is it doesn't feel natural :-/

so the strumming pattern is still the same 1 2 3 4 5 6 down up strum with accents on 1 and 4? or does it start with a down down strum? If that makes any sense
