hi guys, i need some help regarding strumming pattern.i am trying really hard to play but what it seems to me that all my songs that i play sound the same,my mates make fun of me that your songs sounds the same.i am really getting frustrated and i hope some one of you will help me. give me some tips.
been there..and it is hard. If you've just picked up the guitar then i'd suggest getting the changes between chords right first.try concentrating on that first,be able to change without looking once u're really comfortable with the changes start noticing different strum patterns from songs. Also, another way is to listen to different drumming patterns,anything with beats and try replicating that on the guitar. once u're done with that keep your hand loose, as if u're shaking your hand with someone, and then strum ..keep experimenting with different patterns, they're no set rules in music and being able to create a different version of the same song is quite magnificient.(which is in the audible range!) a final tip search google for strum patterns.for that matter search IGT i do remember ppl having pretty much the same problem. i do distinctly remember searching thru google and getting a page which played the sound and showed me the pattern as well. i use www.wholenote.com havea look there good luck and dont get disheartened. :rockon:
