Thank you so very much. I am 63, learning guitar since 2017 and just started writing a song. I have a brand new Fender, my third but most awesome baby, name of Taco. We needed this strumming lesson so much, it is the final piece to push my hard woven notes forward to lovely melodies. And yes, sir, my song IS about cats. Har har and thanks again. Bye for now.

This percussive pattern is tricky for me (4-5 month learning from absolute zero) Your lessons are the best, thanks again.

[RobertRieck-wd]

Awesome thanks for remotivating me. I will start practicing your lessons tomorrow and I see yes that should take me past my plateau

Your page is super helpful for a total beginner like me! Thanks so much for your efforts.

Thanks for this lesson! I'm honest, rhythm, strumming steadily and comfortably are still an issue. The "steadily" part. It's harder than it seems in the beginning... Thanks again for showing the way! 🎵🎵🎵

Hey Rob, congratulations on the 500k subscribers! I have been following you a while now and you've helped me so much as a beginner. You make difficult things look fun and easy to learn. It is a distant dream of mine to be as good as you. Love from India :)
