Thanks so much. I've been looking for a pattern for the Jason Isbell song "Cover Me Up," which is in this time signature. The song hangs on one chord (D) for three bars at a time, so pattern 1 gets boring fast. Pattern 3 is my go-to, but I will be interested to hear how patterns 2 and 4 sound.
It’s a G chord, so technically you can strum all the strings, but it doesn’t really matter which ones you strum, unless you’re playing a song with a specific melody or bass line from the chords.
@@SocialMediaFan1 As guitar players, we learn our basic chords and which strings to strum, so we're always playing from the root in the beginning. That's important to do and to know. In the bigger picture though, it's important not to focus so much on strumming all of the strings you're supposed to when going for a rhythm or "feel." You can leave a few strings out here and there, as long as the rhythm is solid and it sounds good in the context of the song.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Very professional and explained in a very simple way and thank you again for giving us your time.

You can even try mixing the patterns...pattern 2 and 3 are good to alternate between measures. Subtly different, but helps with variation.
Q : in the first G chord segment, which strings should we be strumming?

@@RhinebeckSchoolofMusic is that true of strumming for all chords? 😘👍🏼
