@Nancy R Nice Nancy! Timing is very good and the chords are generally clean. Concur with others... perhaps time to push the tempo some! I would be interested to see/hear how it would work for you to try another approach to how you strum, if you are so willing to entertain it. I notice you are strumming with all downstrokes. Can you try sticking fast to down on the downbeats and up on the upbeats (i.e., the 'ands')? If so, I think this could pay off for you over time. See quick demo below, if it helps. I realize it's already work enough to play the chords right without another thing to think about. Perhaps this is a longer term item to practice. Very glad to hear you found a more comfortable approach (or less uncomfortable, as the case may be). :) https://youtu.be/Ex4_cOkBth0

@James Keillor Cool man. Off to a great start!

@Rick Harding Nice Rick! This continues to develop nicely. It looks pretty challenging to play a chord melody with only a pick. I cast no stones re: weekly posting. You are doing better than I shamefully am.

Done

@Nancy R very nice Nancy. Your progress is manifest. It seems picking comfort is so unique to the player. Sorry to hear about your challenges. I haven't seen you picking yet, but once I do, I'll be looking to see if you employ alternate picking. That's down the road though. Keep up the excellent work!
