Video

I’ve been playing for 3 years and caught me high E and b strings far to much , I’ve just learned that I was holding my plec wrong after watching this , this has completely fixed my issue 🎉❤

Quality video man, just picking up the guitar and this is so easy to follow cheers

Hi Andrew, thanks as always for a great lesson. Just a small note. At 2:26 you said to find all the E major scale notes on the A string. However, you played the 5th fret of the A string (i.e. D note). There's no D note in E major. Is it actually E mixolydian from the A major scale but starting from A instead of E, while a constant 6th string E note drone is ringing?

Thanks! :)

after playing a bunch of legato and economy picking, i still need to humble myself and strum better

buddy great choosen lesson for my acoustic struggle

The problem with most videos like this is you talk too much and not showing the proper way to play. Clearly Show How, As You Talk. Or stop talking so much and teach. Your students already have an idea of what's wrong with their playing.

This is pure gold! Thank you!

Omg 😂 strumming a fuckin guitar is not rocket science wtf?

If you are doing 4 strokes very fast, how can you have enough time to change the angle of the plec so it doesn't snag in the strings on the upstroke? Doesn't seem possible.

I literally have all this mistakes and was always like “why does it sound bad?”. At least now I know so time fix it

No your rong

I just saw your other video that Andrew did about the top 5 strumming mistakes people make and I am so glad to find those tips. I think I figured out most of those on my own through the years but what I really struggle with is tying my strumming to the rhythm. I can learn different strumming patterns but as soon as I try to apply one to a song, I seem to forget the strumming pattern. I am 63 and am, just now, learning to play the ukulele. I can't play guitar as my hands are too small and arthritic. I can manage all the sizes of ukulele, though and I am having fun learning. I figure, when it comes to strumming, it shouldn't matter what stringed instrument you play. Would you happen to have any tips for rhythm and strumming?

Thanks for the no.5 😂

You play chords and don't say what they are.

Mistake #4 - try telling Malcolm Young that his hand must move constantly. He stopped his hand regularly. So does Pete Townshend and the two of them are the best rhythm players in rock history.

I noticed, while watching the video, I do scrape my pick and I also don’t really attack the strings like a drummer. Thanks for the video! I had no idea I was making these mistakes 👌💯

Awesome thanks alot

❤️❤️❤️

Where is the tab for this please?

Very useful.. thank you

Nice Guitar 🎸 👌 ❤ I play over 50 years and you talk strait the truth.I learn only on feeling the rithm ❤❤

Brilliant!

Lemmy was multitalented

Please do more acoustic blues!!

Sounds great ! Great song to learn .

English Song about Salford, now in Greater Manchester. Very smokey industrial chimneys all over the Town back in the day!

Hey man, I really like your style. Subscibed first video! Glad this thing did something right. I consider myself an intermediate level player, put it down few years ago, trying to pick it up again. Enjoyed the lesson very much.

Thanks for that, I hadn't realised I had fallen into bad habits.... P.S. Re the t-shirt. Does anyone else see two ducks holding a pair of large scissors?

🛐 well conveyed and very respectful and points at least to ponder for any level player. Thanks

importantful is not a word my friend lol

one of rarely helpful videos , really. especially about the angle and the way how to strum properly, everybody else talk about the rythm but no one talks about the actual technique. this is some good stuff . thanks !

8:43 "so as you can see even when I'm not strumming my hand still keeps moving" 💀🥶

Agreat lesson. Thanks. The tabs are especially useful.

Yes sir correct also Gate Mouth Brown used that as well I guess it was a Texas thang 🫡

lol best laugh I have had in a long time . yep this is so true . if you ever use tabs watch this

that thumb location on barre chords is interesting never noticed it but defnitely guilty of it if moving hand towards me. sanding the neck back down helps some

Spasibo, bratooha

I feel disgusted of how i was playing before 🤢🤢🤢 😂 thanks for these helpful tips

deeply appreciate your videos. my strumming instantly sound different after follow your guidance. 🤟

Very useful - thank you...

Great video. One question with the angle... When you como up the angle should be the opposite? Or do ou keep the same angle as when you strum down?

WOW.... 😳😱😱😲 ONLY ONE CHORD....!!!! with it so many MAGICALLY sounds.... just amazing. Thank you bro... I became your subscriber.. Your student... Your Fan... From INDIA ( Northeast ) 😊 🙏🏻

Tip #5 was especially great. Thanks for making this video 🤙🏽

Thanks for pointing out the discrepancy over the final chord in the chorus. To my ear, it is definitely not C. A7 sounds good, and so does A9 (lift ring finger) or A 7/9 (lift ring and middle finger). Good job!

Yo! CZcams people!! Stop saying...WITHOUT FURTHER DUE!!! way over used.

This is great! Thank you 🎸🎶✌🏼👍🏼🙏🏼

Love this lesson!

Love this!

Love your lessons, Is it a Fender amplifier you use on the acoustic guitar ? what model ? thanks Chris
