So my transition to the mandolin was from a violin, so learning new fiddle tunes and that type of thing has been a lot of fun and have picked it up quite quickly...
The problem I'm having is being able to strum to specific songs. I know I need to work on changing chords more quickly.. but the strumming pattern seems a bit difficult for me too. I can do the easy chops and the only pattern I seem to have down is the bum buuuuummm, badada .. and I can do that pretty fast.. but any other style is a bit difficult.
I've tried looking up videos on youtube and stuff but I'm having a hard time actually seeing what they're doing and a they mainly jump right in when I kind of need it broken down like you would to a 5 year old. Anyone got any ideas or good references?
