Guitar Noise Podcast #12 - a slightly different strum
Hello to all!
We’re going to try something a little different with our twelfth Guitar Noise Podcast. I’m not even sure it’s got a “technical” name!
Basically, and for lack of a better way of putting it, we’ll be “stretching out” our downstrum - turning it from a typcial downstroke to something that’s more of a musical punctuation mark. It’s easy to do and allows us to vary a typical strumming pattern in an interesting way while practically changing nothing in what we’re doing.
As before, we’ll examine this technique and then combine it with different patterns as well as with other techniques learned from our previous Guitar Noise Podcasts.
As always, I’ll be walking you step by step through the lesson. And, as always, please let us know what you think.
Peace
