    I traveled the world for 13 years playing fiddle/rhythm guitar for one of the all-time top recording artists in country music. As rhythm guitar was somewhat forced upon me (fiddle was my forte) this simple lesson would have saved me a lot of heartaches and frustration had I had it at the time. This lesson should be viewed and learned by ALL aspiring guitarists. Great job!

      @@anotherbahamianguitarplayer In 20 years of teaching I've found that most students understand strum patterns better than counting rhythm. In fact, most find counting rhythm confusing. When I get the occasional student who responds better to counting rhythm, it usually means they have a background in another instrument.

    Thank you aoo much! For the first time since oicling this instrument up over 6yrs ago, I'm learning to strum and it's sounding the way it should...like the chords someone can aing along with! Thanks for your generosity...
