Strumming Q&A - Lighter Strums, Pick Rotation, Gap Between Thumb & Index Finger?

View all my notes for this lesson @ https://songnotes.net/lessons/501/ In today's lesson I'll answer some common strumming questions that come my way. The theme of today's questions is the importance of a *light grip* while strumming. This allows you to get a soft & light sound with your strums, but it can be quite tricky while learning! Dropping your pick and unintended pick rotation are two examples I'll talk about, with suggested ways to improve through practice.
