Neil,

1st of all let me say I love Target. Fantastic resource. Thank you! Now to the question. In Bad Moon Rising in the Rhythm video. I am having most of my problem in keeping a constant rhythm strum pattern in this song and others. I understand your instruction that you have to keep your right hand moving in the strum pattern even though you might not be hitting the strings. Harder to do than one might think! My brain is hesitating because it knows it should not hit the strings, then that throws off the pattern. What is the sound you hear in the video on a fake strum? It is like a click or your are hitting the top of the guitar, or strumming across muted strings.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
