    Been playing guitar since I was 13, 63 now and this strumming video along with some of your other technique videos have been game changers in my playing. Never too late to learn new things! Thanks so much and keep up the good work!
  • @user-rg2vw4bq5o
    Thanks for the basic training, Shane. I’m realizing chording comes easier than a nice sounding strum! I keep lured away trying to play popular songs, or old songs I love. But I am not ready..I’ll keep practicing along with you!!

    Shane. I knew I bought the Beatbuddy min 2 to help play songs to the beat. I had never thought of using it to learn the wack. Watching this video just give me more confidence now that I will make this work. Thanks for making videos like this. It helps so much to further my learning the guitar.

    I am an older beginner. It looks like you are utilizing your middle finger in holding the pick. Could you show a close-up of how you hold the pick in one of your upcoming videos? I truly enjoy the enthusiasm you put into your teaching. I find it inspiring. Thanks for your lessons.

    That was fun! Happy Halloween🎃You crack me up🤣. Thanks for the meditation too😊.
  • @graemesmith8663
    Brilliant. Been trying to get this right for a while. Especially 1/16th strums. It makes much more sense now.

    I think "pluck the chicken" is funnier than "walk." With the whack, at first I had my strumming hand too far back towards the bridge, so the full side of the hand was not contacting the strings. Better success my moving the hand more towards the neck so the hand was just striking the strings.
