    When you say “beginner” I think you greatly over estimated my guitar abilities

      Ao1Bigboy It’s 3 chords. It’s not going to sound great for a while but one day it’s going to click and it will all be worth it. Hearing major resemblance to the song for the first time is the best feeling.

Strumming has always been what ive struggled with more than anything else. Im still getting the hang of what you showed me here but its DEFINITELY helping.

      The way I practiced it was with the song Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Works with any song...). What I did is memorize the strumming pattern and tried strumming just eights. So when I didn't strum, I just did a ghost strum without hitting any of the strings. Hope you understand...kind of complicated...if you want I could make a video and explain it.

    For those who r finding it hard to reach the chords then just do:
    A minor ( Like he said )
    Regular G ( Like he said not to do )
    And Cadd9 ( Just move your index finger and ring finger down one string each from your G and don't play the E string )
    It sounds just as good but it's a bit easier 👍🤷‍♂️

    • @Drako_RS
      @Drako_RS 4 роки тому +1

      that's actually not a bad tip, but i personally just learned the original way (both using the G he told and the regular G. And using the C chord, not Cadd9) since i think the G, C, Am are the barebones for guitar playing, imo it's best to just learn the hard way so it gets easier

    Hi Drue,
    I found your tutorial amazingly helpful. At first I was very overwhelmed, but after a couple days I picked the strumming up without issue. I found your arrow system INCREDIBLY helpful, as hearing and interpreting the strumming patterns have been the most difficult for me. Its something that does not come easily to me.
    Could I ask, on the 3rd strumming pattern, could you please make a short video to show how the correct pattern is played? The part where it should be down,up ..instead of up/down. because does that make the pattern u,d,u,d,d,u? sounds rushed when i play it :/
    Thanks for your great work. its very much appreciated and has been so helpful

      Drue James After some research I've found out that the little solo should be played on the B and E string.
      Play 3h5 on Bstring, Then 0h2 on Estring. Than 3 on Bstring and last open Estring. Little practise but sound more alike the ukulele version.
