Howdy from scenic Ponder, TX, and welcome back to 5minuteguitarlessons.com.  Today’s post is the 2nd lesson in our series on how to fake any song in 3 lessons.  It deals with the basics of strumming, and gives a few patterns to use when faking songs in 4/4 and 3/4 time.  This is especially important for beginners to grasp, since more complex rhythms we’ll learn later will require a strong foundation in basic strumming.  That is, if you don’t get this part right, it’ll be a LOT harder to learn anything really technical down the line.

So grab your favorite 6-or-12-string, enjoy the video, and spend a little time practicing the basics.

Thanks for watching!

Rock on!
