Hi everyone!
In this lesson we will play a funk rhythm in 7/8 and we will focus on improving your groove, timing and technique in general.
Be sure to practice with metronome, using a clean tone with a bit of compression. This way you will be able to add more groove to your playing. Alternatively, you can use a crunch channel with a very low amount of gain, to create a nice saturation.
