Upstroke Strumming Technique



Upstrokes can be a big weak point for newer guitar players. That’s why I want to give you three important tips to help sharpen your upstrokes and level up your strumming. Give yourself 2-3 weeks to get used to the technique presented in this video, and let us know if you have any questions as you progress. 


1 - Lighten up on your pick grip. 

2 - Don’t dig too much of the pick into the strings. 

3 - You don’t have to hit all six strings with your upstrokes. You generally only need to hit the thinnest 3-5 strings. 


If you need some extra help, you can schedule a 1-on-1 private video lesson with me here. The first one is complimentary. It’s also a good idea to create your complimentary Guitar Fam account. That will give you access to the first module of all our premium courses.
