Thanks for putting the effort in showing how the patterns relate to songs. Many YouTube tutors show the pattern without context.

[rlloyd]

I think your channel is one of the best things out there on YouTube! I love your teaching style, song choices, visual presentation, etc. You have helped me along so much on my songwriting journey with this one in particular.

[runnerman]

One of the very best lessons covering strumming patterns that I have seen. Understanding which strumming pattern to use for a song and keeping that rhythm while singing is the most difficult for beginners. A light went on when I watched this video. Thank you very much.

[goldenglowladore]

James, I like how you teach
The counting, the illustrations of 'down/ups', song examples, and demos really help me! Thanks so much.

[markbower]

Thanks for these patterns, I've been needing this😊

[dabienfurnace]

[davidspencer]

Another great lesson James! Thanks for doing this one.

[robertmalone]

You’re the best James once again, excellent information and tutorial ❤🎵🎸

dude, I respect you so much for sharing the Tiny Dancer singing part. I saw you going for that high note, and you had it, but let go. I admire your honesty and vulnerability!

I am over the moon to learn more about strumming patterns. I could kiss you bro...thanx a stack n I've subscribed to your channel to keep in touch.... Thanx once again

[allstonmd]

Appreciate the video. I subscribed as well. Pretty new to this stuff, like no F chord new. I always thought the strumming would be the easy part. Not so much. Thanks again for the videos.

[jacktolhurst]

Hey James, been looking for your pentatonic lessons. Question is when the songs in the key of G. 1/4/5. Should you stay in the G pentatonic pattern through the hole song? Not sure how to explain my question. Anyway hope you understand it. 😮

[CalvinLimSH-ldle]

I notice you strum with keep to straight pendulum wrist swing motions while I see many others doing the you know like washing your hands and shaking the water off - will this affect the timing of the beat and good guitar chord sound

[MusicManFernando]

Thanks James, in the 12/8 pattern is that counted like triplets? Is it the same thing? One triplet, two triplet, three
