lacking in rythm or strumming.

Hi Folks
I am rahul from Bhopal I started learning Guitar a few months ago. I find IGT a great platform for all guitar lovers. I am facing a problem that I am lacking in rythm or strumming. I am not able to keep strumming pattern in my mind. I play quite a number of songs but I feel LIke with all songs i am strumming same pattern. Kindly help me how can I improve my rythm.

Regards

 

Do you need the best way to overcome this problem?? Keep playing (And try to play as perfect as s possible). And also listen to the original song and try to play with that...

 

hi rahul this is prashant ,i am also frm bhopal .welcome to IGT.

 

Start with 1down 1up, then 2down 2up, 2down 1 up 1 down, 3down 1 up 1 down and so on... whatsoever combination u can make. go with slow n then strum hard/hammer or soft, riff as u bump.

best practice to dig a strum pattern is to find the beat of song. try tht on ur lap or butt. one on one side is down n one or other wud be up. two consecutive on a side wud be 2 down or 2up. Do putup any off ur kick ass no.
