Dear Jonathan,

I have found it burdensome to memorize a song while strumming but I am able to strum while reading the song sheet or tab. I am 70 years old, must I memorize a song or can I just sing along from the song sheet or tab?

Thank you Sir for the quick response, but are there any limitations, restrictions or inhibitions to using my thumb to strum that may affect my guitar growth down the line? If any, perhaps it would be better to train myself to appreciate using picks1!

I find myself naturally inclined to using my thumb to strum as against using the pick.

Is this okay or should I discipline myself to use the pick?

Thank you

Ike

I have been learning the guitar for a while now. I am not happy with the sound I create and I am sure it sounds worse when heard by others,

My purpose of taking this course is to be able to play worship songs. Although I love all genre of music,

I want to dedicate my guitar music to the worship of our God and the praise of our Lord Jesus.
