  Level #2 - Ghosting Down Strums

OK everyone, hope the earlier exercises are going well, because it's time for the next level. These ones are harder, to try to bear with them, and don't move on to the next level until you are really comfortable with these ones...

LEVEL #2 EXERCISE
Learn to play the three rhythms in the attached pdf. Ghosted strums are in grey. Patterns a, b, and c are labeled. Listen to the attached audio files to hear how they sound. Again, try playing along, and focus on the swing of your arm and the rhythm, not the down and up strums.


So, just like last lesson, go listen to the audio, and play along (there will be a 'bing' on every '1'). Remember to KEEP TIME, SAY IT, PLAY IT. These are harder, so stick with it!

Good luck,
James
