Topic: THE IMPORTANCE OF STRUMMING = RIGHT OR WRONG?
I often play acoustic guitar, despite the fact that I own 12 electric guitars and having a free room in my house in the middle of my village ON A PARKING PLOT, and only a second house.
Still I prefer acoustic.
It all started with a YAMAHA FG 300, 30 years ago. Those guitars were quit expensive here, OVER PRICED, I paid 400$ in 1978. On the other hand this Yamaha is a wonder to play.
WOODS +++, NECK +++, SOUND +++ , and red label.
WHO HAS EXPERIENCE WITH THIS KIND OF YAMAHA. I only know that prices of this guitar on auctions here go up to 600€ (= 900$ !!!!)
Back to acoustic:
- When I play a song, even every song I know, I never pay attention on the strumming style.
IS THIS GOOD IR BAD.
My goal is to play my guitar in a way that the song is recognized immediately. There are songs, like DOOBIE BROTHERS, LYNYRD SKYNYRD who have a CLEAR strumming pattern like D(own) and U(p)
Like D D D D U U D D D U D D.
Not following the strumming pattern as I should do, doesn't KILL the song. BUT THAT'S MY OPINION
Are there more "experienced" players who don't pay attention on strumming?
A question in connection with this topic is HOW DO YOU PLAY REGGAE?
- MY GUITAR PLAYS EVERY STYLE = BLUES, ROCK, METAL, so I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY IT.
