Learn some fundamental rhythmic figures!

In this lesson we will continue to work on some fundamental and more complicated rhythm figures.

This is the third and last lesson of the sweep picking series in the style of Jason Becker.

No licks and chops here, instead it's about understanding timing. From 4th to 32th and all triplets in between. I programmed drums and bass to guide you, all you have to do it to listen to the backing track, hi-hat mostly.

Learn your first chords and the basics of rhythm.

Practice timing and playing 16th notes using interactive exercises.

Practice timing and playing quarter and eighth note duration using interactive exercises.

This lesson covers three different chicken pickin' licks that can be used in rhythm or lead playing. It stresses the use of hybrid picking along with double-stops and pentatonic scales.

This is an example of how to mix Rhythm & Blues with Funk, or Funk with Blues feeling. I mix the 16th notes for funk feeling with the triplets for rhythm & blues feeling. You will find rhythm and solo parts here.
