What a brilliant idea ????
I thought his final name change was Johnny Mellons?
watching the video where you explain the wrong way of strumming, that sounded pretty much how i was doing it, im gonna get me an egg shaker now, and practice this method, thank you, a great video and easy to follow, unlike most other videos i have seen 🙂
CAN WE PLEAAAAASE GET MORE ON STRUMMING PATTERNS AND CHANGING CHORDS
Brilliant! This is a tremendous lesson, learning new patterns. Or with everyone so obsessed about wondering what the storming pattern is on a particular song You can really make any song sound good with a simple serving patterns used in this technique done right. Thank you for this valuable lesson
PS
I'm off to find an egg shaker. Too bad Easter was over a month ago now.????
Thanks so much for this. I'm definitely going to try it.
I must express my gratitude. I have been playing for over 20 years, albeit with some breaks. Despite my efforts, my performance was lacking. Many people commented that I was not in rhythm, but I believed I was playing accurately. The issue was resolved by a simple trick involving an egg. It made me realize what was amiss—I was consistently lagging behind where I should have been.
Your exercise has greatly aided me in identifying and resolving the problem. Thank you once again. You achieved what several teachers were unable to discern and communicate to me.
Thank you again.
Fleetwood Mac song ….. is it "Go Your Own Way" ?
An oxymoron: wanting to play guitar and practicing Melloncamp. Great lesson though.
I think this sounds like a good thing to try. I struggle with strumming. I'll let you know.
I just found the pick/shaker online for $4.95. Might get one to help with strumming.
Not had any problems getting the rhythm of strum patterns but whenever I'm strumming <56 string chords it just effs up, digs into the strings etc and cant do it fast/in rhythm, can strum fine on like open G or E or whatever but strumming open D is just terrible, catching the strings etc
1 down & no strum up
2 down & up
3 no strum down & up
4 down & no strum up
Repeat
Please include count in future lessons.
Thank you!
Interesting. I'm a long time player. Recently I've been really working on my rhythm and right hand technique. I gotta try strumming with an egg in the hand.
I used a real egg… Some people can't take a yolk … It's in my sound hole.
Did he say one can hang on a pole every day and and grow an inch? Hmmmmmmm ????
Yes! I feel this! I do this weird and totally subconscious flourish on this strum pattern on the "and" or up after the 3rd down (I'm a beginner, so I hope that made sense). Anyhow, that flourish throws me off about 1/16 which adds up over the measures. I'm trying to be more aware and just keep the rhythm. Great tip!
I just found this video; some times I strugle to keep flowing the strummin, as you mentioned; so I think I will get one of the se eggs to practice, Thank You, now new subscriber here , like and best regards ????????????????????????
How do you get egg off the inside of my Martin
I'll definitely try this technique..thanks
I used the egg shaker and have now progressed to a full chicken. Sounds great but there’re feathers everywhere . ???? joking aside. Thanks for this great tip!
Cool! Thanks ????
Thank you so so much! Finally strumming feels natural to me ???? and my strumming overall sounds better now 🙂
Great video! I've played mostly lead my whole life. When I decided to get more into acoustic guitar I was very surprised how hard good strumming is…. This helped !
