I left a thank you out. It is so simple and it will come natural to people. Your timing will be great too because the fingers are keeping time. The only drawback, don’t give up your strumming! I picked every song to sing along with it for years and when I went back to start streaming, it was hard to find the right timing even here 4/4 time!! It was crazy, but I remember reading an article that Keb Mo had the exact same thing happen. He played finger style for so long, that when he had a tune that required strumming, he had to work at it. So I can still keep that strumming in your practices because as simple as it seems, if you don’t do it for a long time, you actually lose it and have to take a little time to get it back.

Hey man your a good teacher, most who have already arrived at good playing forget how hard it may be for a beginner and teach way to fast, so it becomes very frustrating....keep up the good work....😎

I love the combination of strumming and finger picking

Thanks Jonathan, this is really helpful to me. Fingerpicking is a guitar goal of mine and given that I'm mostly using both of the basic strum patterns you've taught me, adding the finger picking version makes complete sense. Thanks!
