6/29/23 update!
I can't believe this little video is still going and GOING! Guys, thanks for watching - it means a lot. I've 500+ videos but this was one of the first and I didn't even originally make it for UA-cam. I know it looks like it was made in 1984 instead of 2012, believe me. But the content is still very cool.
Please join me on Saturdays at 5pm ET for my free UA-cam Guitar Q+A livestream. Just text your questions about learning the guitar and I'll answer as many as I can in about 2 hours. If you can't make it on Saturdays, the livestreams are available to watch afterwards and soon I'll be making them into podcasts as well. I look forward to your questions!
And if you're serious about getting better at the guitar, check out my website www.song-bike.com. Lots of great content and PDFs - stuff NOT AVAILABLE on UA-cam.
I do online lessons too. Email me : info@song-bike.com
This beginner rhythm guitar video teaches the classic Boom-Chicka Strum Pattern. You can't play Americana, folk, country or bluegrass without this so master it asap ! The Boom-Chicka feel is found in so many rock songs; I like Friend Of The Devil by The Grateful Dead. It's simplicity makes it great for songwriting too. Memorize the pattern so you can keep your eyes on your hands. Go slowly. It's worth it!! Be patient and judge your progress in terms of weeks, not days. You can do it !!
I’ve been a professional singer for most of my adult life and now at the age of 87 have decided to have a go at backing myself on guitar. Have mastered a range of basic chords and just discovered your brilliant app Johnathan which is brilliant for beginners like me finger picking and interesting strumming now seem to be attainable so thanks a million
John, Ya beat me. I'm 81, not a good singer and just learning guitar and strumming. God Bless.
Hi Frank nice to know there is another optimistic Oldy out there
determined to master a new skill. It doesn’t matter whether or not you are a “good singer” it will be lovely to do it just for your own enjoyment and who knows you might just discover that your better than you thought. My advice is that should you find yourself entering the professional arena don’t sell yourself cheaply
God bless to you too 😁
Thank you for watching, gentlemen and I wish you much musical success ! Please subscribe & check out my website www.song-bike.com to see my other learning materials like books, e-books, PDFs and of course more videos!
That's the way I learned to play the G chord and I find It more difficult to play It In the four finger position. The G D E and A minor come easy for me when playing the four finger G.
the most American thing one can watch on youtube... if our civilization ever comes to an end, hopefully this guy`s videos and Pulp Fiction will be saved somewhere. bless him
Brilliant lesson Jonathan..im only playing since covid..boom chica strum..im getting there ..you are a great teacher..listening from Ireland..

Keep up the lessons for all of us beginners, they are so helpful when you feel that you are struggling, and you feel everything is too hard, and you want to give up.
Hey I am 51 years old and just starting to play an I really enjoyed this lesson !!! Thanks for a great lesson !!!!
Ron Cantrell Thanks Ron ! More videos on the way...
Hey Jonathan. This is one of the best videos I've seen yet on teaching a strum pattern. Especially for someone like me. I like how you kept it very slow. I am a 58 year old man learning the guitar for the first time. I do see a teacher once a week. Thank you. You have made me very happy. I might call you soon.!
+Sowlev1 Hi S, thanks for watching ! I really enjoy making these videos and I'm glad you liked this one.

I appreciate that, KC!

my 10 years old nephew can play some tunes by going to a classic guitar teacher. but I've always telling his mother she has to learn to play chords if she really wants to go on and having more fun with more stuff to play with also with friends. but I didn't know how convince her. and here I found you, showed her and I got it. now my nephew has a new proper guitar to start with, a new modern guitar teacher, and you as an english pc great second (but best for me) teacher for power chords and then more and more, I hope.. thanks man you're great and helped so many people mostly for free, mainly for passion. rare thing, nowadays. this is something even more important to teach to guys. best things in life, as love, are priceless. don't measure always life with money...
nome nemo Good advice ! It's awesome that your family is coming together with music. Don't ever stop. I have a new website in the works. If you want to know when it's ready, please like my facebook page : facebook.com/mysongbike.
Terrific, useful video. Great teaching style, with detailed, thoughtful explanations. Jonathan slowly, calmly, and methodically introduces new techniques, as he previews how they are applied to future mastery, as opposed to "look how fast I can play" format of many other online lesson providers.
You're hired as my new marketing director, William! :) Please check out my website www.song-bike.com for more videos NOT available on UA-cam. You can become a member and support what I do !

Thank you for the D, C and G trick video's they are so helpful and easy to follow along with, and the Boom-Chicka strum pattern has helped me so much. What a wonderful teacher. Thanks Jonathan

Another interesting lesson. After a 10 year break from learning/trying, I have accelerated exponentially in weeks. I was lost and chasing my tail trying too many things and getting good at none of them years ago. I actually have some skills now and learn so much faster thanks to your lessons, Jonathon. - Joe
I am glad I found your lessons. I tried lessons in a music store and I could not continue since I have bad neck problems and could not sit upright in their chair. So I will take lessons at home from you with my head resting back in my comfortable tall lounger. I know it is not the best position but it is all I can do. So thank you for your relaxed, fun, and informative lessons. I am 60 and I really enjoy playing.

Awesome teacher. Awesome guitar player! I love the pleasant way you teach guitar: So Calm. Serene. Smiley and very Gentle. I love this lesson! The "Boom-Chicka-Boom" strum"s harmonious sound, it invades my soul. Inspires me deeply to begin learning to play guitar now, at my seventy years of age! I love music. I play Harmonica since i was a seven years old child. I wish my dream becomes a true one, being able to play the glorious guitar. Thank you Mr. J. Kehew, for posting such nice video lessons. I "hope i can afford'" to buy a guitar, C.J.Martin, like yours... It sounds spectacular. Thank you again and God-bless! Fernando Oliveira. Ontario. CANADA.
roamingminder Hey, thanks for watching ! Do you still play the harmonica ? Hope so ! There are some beautiful Canadian guitars too ! Take care...
jkehew1 I just bought my son a "seagull" (canadian made i think) to hopefully have him get the bug and learn. Playing it was fantastic. noticed that it sounded nicer than my martin! it has such a rich sound. compelled me to bring my martin in for some "tune up". now I need to learn how to play myself. awesome series you have put out here for us beginners!
I love these lessons no teacher has ever given easy tips to make learning this easy for Me! great job!
I absolutely agree with this statement.. You inspire me constantly. A very good teacher...
Fernando, I agree with you. I love the way this man teaches. I am beginning guitar and I'm about your age. I'll be 75 soon this year of 2018. I hope that you are blessed with long fingers like Mr. Kehew. Mine are so short. I live in Texas.
Great to watch this is the best strumming pattern I have ever seen so easy to follow and easy to practice thanks for your instructions
Thanks for watching, Bryan!

Thanks, Jon; I can’t say enough about your teaching style. Some want it fast, but you always take it slow and easy, explaining in detail. Your vids are quality, you dress to look professional and, if you’re not the nicest guy in the world, I don’t know who is. Live long and prosper.
I'm nice until someone reaches for the last cookie....
Hahaha, we all have our weaknesses. You da man, though, no doubt.
Thank you, this was an excellent lesson, very clear, well-paced and easy to follow!

I spent many hours, years working it slooow.... speed will come. Precision must come first. I have your same mindset teaching style. You are really excellent. And that G chord you show is essential. I have a kid student , a sax player saxman, also like me, wants to go fast ? says he cant play slow....Im working him ...lol
Thanks Gary! It's hard to slow somebaody down. I've heard the same thing for years; "I can't play slow." Remember that song, "I can't drive 55?" Please check out my website www.song-bike.com for more videos NOT available on UA-cam. You can become a member and support what I do !
I don’t like hearing that the alternative G chord is essential, it seems every time I watch a guitar lesson, I have to create new muscle memory. In all seriousness, I appreciate you confirming the importance of it. I’m sure one day I’ll appreciate it. Until then grrrrr.....
@@Pepsiguy You never are done learning guitar. Ther are at least 5 novice ways to play G. If you dont learn them you get stuck at beginner level.

This is how my dad taught me the G major chord . I strum exactly like this. But it's about as far as I got. I am now trying to pick it up again to play in church.
I'm always happy to hear about people getting back into the guitar, Randy!

Hahaha. Can't believe this is from 2013. The production makes it look straight out of 1993 or something. No criticism there. Just kind of a bang-on '90s tv look. Great vid. I'm an upper-intermediate player and I can do a lot of fancy stuff. But I never got this strum figured out. The advice about a heavier attack on the bass vs. a light strum was exactly what I needed to understand.
I totally know what you mean, TCOTD! It's a long story, but the look was definitely NOT intentional.

Especially This one, the C D G trick and the beginner lesson. I can actually play something that sounds like music and thats what keeps me picking up the Guitar! And now knowing "give me one reason" is awesome. Thanks so much.

Wow this is what I call a good guitar teacher. Clear and simple language, not too fast not too slow. Any chance you can teach the last bit hammer on and pull off embellishment?
+klasikindo Hi Klasikindo, thanks for watching ! Here's a link to a video I did on bass note runs.
ua-cam.com/video/FVOr3rqGzp8/v-deo.html
I think it will help explain some of what I'm doing at the end of this video. In general, when I'm playing G, C and D I do a lot of hammer-ons and pull-offs involving the 2nd fret of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th strings (G, D, and A strings.) I will definitely consider this topic for a future video!
I have 40+ new guitar videos on my brand new website. www.song-bike.com. Please check it out ! And please 'like' my facebook page for giveaways, cool posts and more ! facebook.com/mysongbike.
Thank you! This was most useful. I am one that learned to hold my first three fingers when holding for the G chord. After watching this I am very aware how it is a smoother transition in many cases. I also love the fact that you talk about how music can be link with our modes of transportation throughout history. great stuff!
+Mary Anne Thanks Mary Anne ! In case I didn't mention it in the video, I heard that transportation-rhythm thing from a book by Alan Lomax (I think.)

Mate I have been trying to get better for quite a few years now but feel like I came to a plateau as after jamming with people I would go home and forget the songs or rhythm of so it would get frustrating. This is only the 2nd video of yours I have seen the first being the 12 bar blues which I can play but your explanations have been great and easy to follow. Thanks for the great videos, something tells me l will finally be able to get out of the plateau l have been trying to get out of thanks to you. Much appreciated....John
I really appreciate that, John!
