Guitar Strumming

Guitar Strumming is really the essential element that's required for what most people think of as "playing the guitar."

The classic scene of the guitar player with the big acoustic, sitting around a campfire late at night singing songs...hopefully not "Kumbaya".

In this short video lesson, we'll go over the absolute beginner's guide to strumming the guitar and how to go about counting beats, rhythm and down and up strokes.

You'll also hear what some simple chords sound like when they're strung together with simple strumming--the basis of most songs, especially the great ones--Tom Petty's Into the Great Wide Open, Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, The Beatles' Yesterday come to mind.
