When I strum down on chords, they just don't seem to "ring" like they are supposed to. I don't know if I am hitting them to hard or to light.
Second, strumming up is a big problem for me on chords! I either manage to hit the first and second string and miss the rest, or I hit the third string and miss the rest, LOL.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Yes, I have read several of the strumming lessons, but it doesn't help.
