Hi, Andrew, thank your for the lesson. I always had a problem with palm muting, because when I move my hand back to palm mute, my elbow and shoulers needs to move back and up, and it becomes uncomfortable to hold it like that for more and a minute or too. Do you know how to deal with this?
This is one of the best strumming lessons I’ve ever seen! I’ve been looking for one for awhile now and all of them don’t answer the questions you did in this one, thank you so much!
Great lesson! Your way of holding the pick is pretty unique, most people I know hold it more between the pad of the thumb and the lateral side of the index. I was taught by my teacher that that was the "right" way of holding it, but I guess it doesn't matter.
Thanks for watching! There a many viable ways to hold the pick. The one you mentioned is pretty standard, but it doesn't allow you to hybrid pick as easily because of your hand position or have the same level of control when making micro adjustments to the pick as you play (which is especially important when strumming). When trying to alternate pick quickly, I tend to move the pick into a position much more like the one you're talking about.
I actually don't use any measuring tools when doing setups on my guitars. I do it 100% by feel. So I can't really give you any measurements to follow. However, thanks to the way Suhr guitars are made, I can essentially have the neck relief at less than 1mm. I keep my action set quite low with the exception of my low E string. I find that I hit it pretty hard, so I keep it raised a little bit to reduce rattling.
I play wayyy too tight in my arm. My wrist is still locked after all these years! Ugh. Time to practice. Thanks for the tips here man.
Thanks for checking out the video bro 🙌
Rockstar!🤟🏻
🙌🙌
I find this a lot different strumming electric to accustic is this right 😊
There are some differences becayse of the body size, but the overall technique is the same.
Great video
Thanks for watching!
Ready to learn! 🚀😎🎸
Earlyyy !!!
Your playing at 11:35 was awesome. 🔥
Nylon Dunlop .73 is a great all around pick. They will last you forever too. I would buy this dude a beer if I could.
Hi Andrew! I really like your videos, and I've learned a lot from them. What kind of pick are you using? Is it a ChickenPicks Badazz III?
Yup! You got that right. I've since switched to Dunlop Tortex Jazz III XLs (1.35mm)
Great lesson Andrew. I liked what you said about anchoring the arm on the guitar and strum from the wrist. Craig Ewinger
Thanks for sharing this with us. Nice lesson!
Great lesson!
Great rhythm lesson. I wish someone one showed me these techniques years ago. Thank you.
Thank you Andrew...from Andreu in Barcelona. If you are ever around let me know.
You're welcome, Andreu! I'd love to visit Barcelona someday. Cheers!

can you tell me how you have setup your strat. neck relief, action? thank you.
