Up Your Acoustic Guitar Game With The Thumb-Upstroke!

Calum Graham demonstrates the essentials of the thumb-upstroke with and without a thumb pick in this acoustic guitar lesson. By using the strategy to an easy development – and after that adding arpeggios – he demonstrates how it can be utilized in a musical context. This Elixir Strings artist plays Acoustic Phosphor Bronze with NANOWEB Finishing for their tuning stability. Have a look at our items: https://www.elixirstrings.com/products

While fingerpicking acoustic guitar typically includes downstrokes with your thumb, finding out to integrate upstrokes opens an array of balanced possibilities. Of specific interest to those keen to broaden their percussive techniques, the thumb-upstroke is a fairly innovative strategy, but one truly worth standing firm. Put in the practice and you’ll soon have the thumb-upstroke down!
