30 Beginner Funk Rhythms

Welcome to 30 Beginner Funk Rhythms You MUST Know.

“Funk” is not only a timeless genre of music, it's also an essential rhythm guitar skill that you’ll apply across virtually every genre of music.

If you’re playing classic funk, soul or R&B music, you’ll be playing “funky” parts almost exclusively.

But you can also bring the “funk” when playing rock, jazz, blues, pop, and you’ll even hear some very funky modern country tracks.

Learning how to lock into the rhythm section with a tight syncopated guitar part that keeps the audience tapping their feet is more about feel than anything else.

And the quickest and easiest way to develop that feel is simply practicing playing funky parts over funky tracks.

That’s exactly what we’ll do together here in this collection of 30 funk rhythm guitar parts.That’s exactly what we’ll do together here in this collection of 30 funk rhythm guitar parts.

We’ll work with 6 funky jam tracks in different keys and tempos. I’ll show 5 different rhythm approaches for each one of those tracks.

Along the way, I’ll show you essential funk chord voicings, right-hand techniques, versatile single-note approaches, funk scratches, double-stops and other key “funky” approaches and techniques.

Most importantly, you’ll be able to practice and playalong with me throughout the entire course.

You’ll have all of TrueFire’s learning tools to work with along the way so you can learn and practice at your own pace.
