Hey scotttheRobot, …
Hey scotttheRobot, it’ll all come in due time with practice mate. To answer your question, you can do both. Marty starts by showing little riffs you can pick in between chords, and then starting around 5:12, he shows you that you can hammer on notes while strumming the full chords.

Practice hammer ons within the full open chord strum, AND practice little picking riffs after strumming the chord a couple times (which I personally find to be a harder concept than hammering on during full strums).

Yo MARTY ! Im a …
Yo MARTY ! Im a little confused on the right hand when strumming the full chord and playing the embellishments. To get technical ARE YOU TAKING LITTLE BREAKS WITHIN THE STRUM TO PICK THE NOTES or are my hammer ons just not that strong cause im pretty sure they are strong. hahaha. help anyone.

This scratches that …
This scratches that itch I’ve had for a while. Thank you kindly, good sir.

Every time I have this video (as well as a couple othes) up to practice and my 5y/o sidekick is around, she’s asks to watch/hear “Mighty Shortz.”
