Kristofer Dahl7th July 2015Very cool. I'd also like to add the rhythmic control you get for these kinds of exercises gives your lead playing new dimensions as well. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to expand their style and technique.

Hi GMC!
This time we are going to have a Funk Workout, great to develop your funk feel, hands coordination, rhythm placement, loosen the right hand and so on!
There are 8 grooves to work on, more or less difficult and more or less musical...
Isolate each groove and work on it, play it with the backing track or a metronome during several minutes. This way you will also develop your endurance and you inner rhythm.
-Important-
As it is not the focus here, I didn't write the scratches / dead notes we may find in funk guitar.
So it's up to you to play all or just some scratches here and there, it could be a great help to isolate the 16ths and add some percussive sounds in the playing. Remember, your right hand is constantly moving in time with the music, up & down with the 16th note subdivision.
We are going to work with a groove in E, medium tempo - 90bpm - with a light swing feel.
Slow parts are played at 65bpm.
Gear used:
Suhr Classic T & Badger amp
Here's the one and only chord for this lesson, the famous E7/9!
