Beats, to some people comes naturally, while for others it requires lots of ear training to catch the rhythm. To improve on rhythm, try listening to as many songs as possible and focus on the beats. You can try tapping your hand in sync with the beats to catch the rhythm.

You are right, a bar consists of 4 beats, but when it contains only a single stroke, it is often shortened in notations to show 2 beats. The exact notation would be:

| 1 & 2 & | 3 & 4 & | 5 & 6 & |
| D x D x | D D U x | D U D U |

Now, it should be clear!

Hi Abhinav,
This was awesome. Kudos to the Cameo. I am a newbie to guitar and to your site (I love your blog)

I Started to practice different chords, and its going good.

Problem is Strumming. I am not able to recognize the beat. I read through your strumming pattern article, its very comprehensive, and I even understood it. But when putting to practice it doesn’t sound the way it should be (atleast I have the feeling that it isn’t sound like it should).

Can you tell us more about beats and bars (especially how to practice them)?

Like for this song the strumming pattern you are playing is
| D – | D – | DDU- | DUDU |
but when I play it, it is nowhere near the way you played in this song.

You have divided the whole thing in 4 |. You have 1 D and a – in first two block and in 3rd you have DDU- and 4th DUDU. If i count beats it is 2+2+4+4=12 (i auusme – is blank beat), but somewhere i read a bar is 4 beats, I am confused. Can you help understand this.

And again your site is beautiful. What technology did you use to make this?

Best Regards,
Karmendra

No matter what your voice sounds like, the most important thing is your sincerity to make a song worth listening to. I know you will learn the trade soon. Just keep on practicing your craft.
