Strumming is a method of guitar accompaniment in which the strings are played sequentially, as opposed to "striking" accompaniment, where the beat goes through all the strings at once. This kind of accompaniment creates a feeling of lightness and transparency in the song.
Instructions
Step 1
The brute-force recording is based on a numeric listing of the strings to be plucked. The order goes from the first (thinnest and highest) to the sixth (thickest and lowest) strings, both sound like the note "E" in different octaves. The duration of notes in such a system is not indicated, but most often the brute force is played evenly and in eighths. That is, an enumeration of this type: 6-3-2-3-1-3-2-3 - is inherent for a song with a 4/4 size, and this: 6-3-2-1-2-3 - for songs of 6 /eight.
Step 2
The lower strings, on which the bass of the chord is played (sixth, fifth, rarely fourth), are plucked with the thumb (p). Pluck the remaining strings in sequence with your index (i), middle (m) and ring fingers (a). For the first option it will be a combination of p-i-m-i-a-i-m, and for the second p-i-m-a-m-i.
Step 3
The brute force was analyzed using the E minor chord as an example. When you hold down other chords, the fingering does not change unless the fingering order is changed.
