Most Guitarists Are Never Taught How To Strum Properly, But This Book Will Change That For Good

The truth is, strumming is something that is not taught very well. It is often seen as a dark art because of the subtle nature of it.

If you have ever watched a guitarist strum really well, play with great feel and rhythm, do all the cool tricks such as pick strumming or bass strumming, etc, and tried to replicate them only to fall flat, you will know what I mean.

There is a huge world of amazing things you can do with strumming but most guitarists never really learn how.

Like any skill, strumming takes practice, but the practice becomes much more enjoyable when you are given a clear path, explanations of what you need to do or avoid… and a proper plan to move forward.

The tools you will learn to use in this book will give you all of that and so much more.

 

Most Beginner Guitarists Are Very Frustrated By Their Ability To Strum

The first problem many guitarists encounter, is they are rarely taught how to strum with good technique. This means they often have a shrill, messy or jerky strumming sound which sounds and feels sloppy.

The guitarist never really gets comfortable with strumming, and if they do, it takes them years and lots of trial and error to be able to strum with complete confidence.

These years are wasted time as often with strumming, the guitarist only needs to make a few small tweaks and then their strumming sound improves right away.

Most guitarists would love to be able to sing and strum at the same time. It is tough but I`ll show you how to do this.

In this book, I will take you through the most common strumming mistakes that nearly all beginners make – and more importantly, I will teach you how to improve these areas right away!

 

Many Guitarists Learn One Or Two Strumming Patterns And Stop There – No Wonder They Get Bored!

Once a guitarist gets remotely decent at strumming, they tend to learn one or two of the most important strum patterns and then stop there.

They then use these one or two strumming patterns to play pretty much every song they know.

They strum the same exact pattern in the same exact way and don`t actually feel much excitement or joy with their strumming.

This gets really boring for you, the listener, and everyone pretty quickly. Even if they learn more strum patterns they often have no idea how to use them in songs or which strum pattern to play for that song!

In this book, we will solve all of this.

 

 

Learn The Most Interesting And Useful Strumming Patterns Ever – And Learn How To Choose A Suitable One For Any Song!

Every guitarist should learn the core patterns. (There are actually 16 awesome and incredibly useful patterns taught in this book).

In this book, you will learn the most useful, inspiring and exciting strumming patterns ever created for the guitar.

Once you learn these, you will have a huge arsenal of fun and exciting rhythms and strum patterns that will make all of your music fun for the rest of your playing. These patterns are the key!

The 16 strumming patterns are broken up into the following sections…

• The Super Reliable And Very Flexible Strum Patterns
• The “Big Two” Essential Strum Patterns
• Contemporary Strum Patterns To Complete Your Playing
• “Split Bar” Strum Patterns For A More Exciting Groove
• The Most Important Alternative Time Signature Strum Patterns
• Exciting Strum Patterns Specific To Certain Genres Of Music

 

 

Discover The Secrets Of Great Strumming Such As Pick Strumming, Bass/Treble Strumming, Percussive Strumming And Much More.

Most strumming guitarists fall into one of two camps.

1. The frustrated beginner who wants to get good at basic strumming and learn the useful patterns
2. The frustrated early intermediate who wants to learn all the cool tricks and subtle awesomeness that the seasoned pro`s use – a lot.

This book is ideal for both.

It was tempting to split this book into two books but truth be told:

“My aim with this book is for it to be the most amazing and most incredible resource on strumming anywhere.”

The book is perfect for both of the above-mentioned type of guitarists.

The frustrated beginner will learn exactly what they need to do to be able to master the basics and once that is done they can develop and learn the more intermediate stuff.

The frustrated early intermediate guitarist will have a great refresher on the basics and learn to fix any niggling errors, but more excitingly for them, they will learn my very best strumming tricks…

…the ones that fill the player and the listener with lots of excitement.

These include learning techniques such as:

• Pick strumming
• Bass strumming
• Percussive strumming
• How to use “swing”
• How to use “rests” to add massive energy to a pattern
• Strumming Fills
• Palm muted strumming
• Bass runs and bass riffs
• …and plenty more very cool techniques you would struggle to learn anywhere else.

Instead of endlessly searching YouTube and the internet for some good lessons, all of the lessons here are neatly packaged, taught in a proper order…

…where they build upon each other, all done in a structured way and all there to save you time.

 

 

Learn The Techniques And Skills The Pro`s Use

There Are Three Parts To The Book Taking You From Complete Novice To Beginner To Intermediate And Beyond…

Part 1 – The Fundamentals

I wrote the book and the examples in three parts with Part 1 covering the keys to good strumming technique, rhythm, understanding of rhythm, fixing mistakes, and massively improving your overall strumming tone.

This section is important because, as stated a lot of guitarists struggle with the strumming basics and never really get their strumming sounding good.

You have to build your house on a solid foundation and this section is that foundation.

 

Part 2 – The Essential 16 Strum Patterns

Part 2 is all about the wonderful strumming patterns you will learn. These are the ones you hear all the time in music.

Unlike other strumming books, I have fine-tuned and whittled these strum patterns down so they:

• Sound great and each one is distinctive
• Are the ones that get used in real music a lot
• Cover all the strumming patterns you will ever need!

If a song uses a strumming pattern not taught in this book, it is likely the song uses skills from a specific specialist genre (e.g. jazz).

Best of all, I will show you how to know which of these strumming patterns to use in a song.

 

 

Part 3 – The Best And Most Exciting Advanced Strumming Techniques

Part 3 is where things get super exciting.

Many of the amazing skills you will see and hear pro`s use, can seem really elusive to non-professionals, but in this book, I break down the super cool techniques and teach you them in a simple way so you can run with the ideas.

This is where we take the fundamentals of great strumming technique and the essentials of the strum patterns and have lots of fun with them.

You will learn some very cool “tricks” such as how to use bass runs, palm muted strumming, backbeat/percussive strumming, bass/treble strumming, swing, dynamics, rests and so much more.

These are the awesome sounding skills and “tricks” that you hear every great strummer use. Once you learn these examples, you will be ready to impress your audience, just like the highly skilled pro`s do.

You will also learn my really practical guide on how to sing and strum at the same time. This will be essential reading for many of you.

 

Every Example Comes With Tab, Sheet Music, MP3 Audio And There is a Printable Tab

For every example in the book, you will get an audio MP3 which you can either stream or download to your media player.

You will also get the tab, sheet music and strumming diagrams to help you learn the techniques in the fastest way possible.

As a bonus, you will also get a printable tab reference so you can quickly bring up all the techniques presented in the book as either a quick reference guide or to print off and use alongside the book.

A lot of books don`t feature any audio, but this book has over 100 audio examples to play along with.

Playing along with the audio is essential to you being able to keep time, hold a steady beat and sound better than ever with your strumming.

 

 

This Is A Massive Upgrade On My Old Strumming Book, (Which Still Gets Dozens Of Five Star Reviews)

If you have read or heard about my old strumming book, Strumming 101, you will know it received dozens of five-star reviews on many of the international Amazon sites and still continues to be a big seller in the guitar category.

This book is a massive update on that well-loved book.

All the feedback and thoughts from the old book went into this book to make it the absolute best book you will find on strumming, anywhere.

This Book Will Improve All Of Your Playing – Here`s Why…

One thing I always say is that strumming is simply rhythm applied to the guitar. Along with having great technique, having great rhythm is the most important thing you can do for your guitar playing.

This is because rhythm is everything in music.

Every single pluck, pick, hammer-on, pull-off, slide, string bend, etc, will have rhythm applied to it.

This can be a long four bar passage using a variety of sub-divisions or it can be just two notes plucked in an ambient manner.

No matter what the piece is – the rhythm has to be right.

You can learn all the complex and interesting chord voicings in the world, all the cool scales, and all the tricks in the box, BUT if you don`t play them with great rhythm they mean nothing.

This book will teach you everything you need to know about rhythm.

Sometimes, it is fixing simple things many guitarists don`t know about such as how hard they hold the pick, which finger they strum with, the motion their arm makes or the way they strike the strings.

These little tweaks make all the difference to their tone, and in the book, one of the first things you will learn is how to confidently strum with great tone.
