@speckpgh Funny, I just had a conversation with someone this week about the correct strumming going out the window when vocals are added. Turns out that’s quite common, even for advanced players. Just has something to do worth muscle memory, and the fact our brains can’t consciously pay attention to two converging thought processes. Something has to be on muscle memory while conscious thought deals with the other. Most of the time, guitarists simply revert to something that “sounds good.” Whether right or not, have you noticed all the different interpretations of strum and pick patterns between players that are playing the same exact song. It’s all in our own interpretation of a song.
As for the Dsus’, those will become more natural as you play and sing. Spend a little more time on those areas than the ones you already do well. Soon they’ll become muscle memory too.
