Congratulations, !
Challenge complete
Come back tomorrow for your next challenge
Learned so much,,great course.
Lovin’ this!
This module is high on the enjoyment meter! So much fun!
Ok, got it. Just need to keep working on fluidity. Picking: moving from one string to the next; Fretting: arching fingers, avoiding damping some strings and getting fingers all the way tight to the nuts; Stumming: work on alternating up and down on various rhythms. Practice, practice, practice.
Thanks for this. Was fun walking through them.
Single string picking is bringing me back to form for chords. I have a few issues getting everything to ring!
This last lesson just flowed from the previous lessons and felt good. Now I will practice them slow and in time speeding up and I gain more pick control. I can fingerstyle like mug. So that is lock me. Now this will be another tool that I have wanted a long time. Practicing here and there will be fun and rewarding. Last step is figure out how to fit into songs.
A lot to digest, but… I think I can.
My favorite was the kitchen sink.
This has been a great help learning the timing and the strumming.
I was missing the Golden Rule? Wow! Once I stuck to that, everything fell into place. Thanks Tony
How do you favourite this lesson?
I do need to practice, but enjoyed the lesson.
Great lessons!
Was fun to see what i rememebered as well as learning new stuff.
I really enjoyed the Strumming Jumpstart. Haven’t played in about 15 years and this was a great review. Just wish I had done this course between the 30 Days to Play and the 5 Day Challenge. Can’t wait to play more rhythm guitar. Loving TAC.
I will be practicing a lot more
I definitely cannot just strum along to any song.
This helps a lot !!!!
very useful information.
Really enjoyed how this all came together. Will be practicing it in the future. Thanks, Tony, for another excellent series of lessons.
I get these strumming patterns and I’m practicing them. I can’t find any tabs for a song so I can practice a pattern with a song. Have any of you found a good song with tabs from Tony’s site?
Wow I struggled to get the strumming patterns but with this video repeated a few times I slowly got it!
What does Pharmacists have to do with guitar playing??
I need more practice on this 10 essential strumming patterns and would like to put all the jumpstart patterns in favorites but there is no heart in lower right of video to save it. HELP, PLEASE, PLEASE
Went thru this mixing notes and it was interesting. But can’t say I’m ready to use this. Been playing almost everyday but still need more time playing to get more efficient.
Lesson 4 was the only tab that downloaded.
Love these strumming exercises, exactly what I need to get to the next level of guitar playing. Really helpful!
I hade been fiddling around with an alternate online guitar learning system for three years before I switched to TAC and this is the first time I not only understand but can use rhythm strumming. Thank you, I have been wanting this for quite a while — straight quarter notes get very old very quickly 🙂
Great for practice! Thanks Tony!
Thanks Tony for opening my eyes to strumming! Excellent Course!
Love the different kinds of strumming!
Loved this strumming info, especially the P/M in the 9th measure and the instruction on palm muting! Now I can play Everlong! Thank you
This was a very enjoyable lesson. Again, practice, practice, practice.
practice…practice…..
This was very useful. I have used my own picking pattern but find that this lesson gave me many variations.
Now I understand why palm muting produced no tone. I have a problem with 8th note down-up either my pick becoming disoriented or getting stuck in the strings on the up stroke.
Note for the palm mute its all down strokes (no up strokes) which makes it much easier to produce a consistent palm mute tone. I too struggle with up strokes and palm muting, but thankfully most of the time the strums are all down strokes when palm muting.
Another great lesson for me .
Great lesson, I learned alot with this,thank you.
this was a great lesson for me, was random strumming, your explanation of downbeat, upbeat strum was very helpful.
Wow, there is a lot here. Definitely need to come back to this lesson.
I returned to this page to lower the anxiety I was feeling from today challenge “pumpik pie”. I didn’t want to feel defeated so I came here to have some fun and breath.
This was very good for me; helped me with keeping rhythm, varying up the chord songs with different strums, and helping me with the pick. Thanks!
Also, the cheat sheet on the last lesson will be used often!!!!
I have found that singing the song I am playing in my head I can then apply that to my strumming pattern and emphasis
These exercises have been very enlightening. Now I have to learn how to apply them to my playlist. Thank You.
Thanks Tony, enjoyed it
Felt very successful with this course. Thank you, Tony!
great lesson. Thanks!
Man that was cool
Very interesting I just need to get the G Cord played without muting the A string. Otherwise very good stuff.
Im muting the A too
I have this same problem. Frustrating! I have fat fingers.
