Fantastic teacher, pro player
Thank you Rob!
Hell. Ya.
Thanks Doug!
Awesome lesson. So funky. Gonna try these out now!!
Sir this is wonderful!, I've been learning lots of Tower of Power songs and it's amazing how often this happens on their songs:) totally recommend tower of power ,great pieces of art harmonically and in every aspect that you may need practicing, each song has something different to make you think about:)
Thanks Lucas, yeah TOP is one of my favorite bands!
Fantastic lessons, super clear and super funky!
Question for you and community: what weight pick do you recommend, especially for fast, syncopated skank strumming? The reason I'm asking is that lighter picks seem much easier, but don’t want to be limited to them when mixing in melodic fills.
I used a pretty heavy Clayton 1.52 teardrop. It's all personal preference really but I prefer the punchy attack and tone I get with heavy picks. I suggest you also check out my lesson "this technique hurts.." for another Technique for skank strumming
@@TastyGuitarcom yes, saw that and now am developing a very useful callus after the initial pain ;-}
Great quality material!!! Very musical well played and well explained. Congrats and keep it up with the great job!!!Cheers from Rio
Thank you!
Great stuff Rick!!! Are the last examples some kind of mixodorian?
Yeah kinda, thinking more of a dominant chord groove with minor color....mixing the 2 scales together
Just subscribed to your channel. Fantastic! What is the guitar (and pickups) you are using for this lesson? Very funky.
Thanks! This is a Sjuman sq16 guitar. A really great value guitar from Indonesia. I did a full review, check my gear review playlist
Man, you are great
Ala Meters people say. Love this stuff,Thanks!

I now this is a Syman Guitar....nice sound
Sjuman, yeah it's a great guitar!
GOLD Rick
Thank you!
Yeah man, awesome 🙌🏻🙏cheers
Thanks!
The closet term for your slide is glissando /ɡlɪˈsandəʊ/ Learn to pronounce
Music noun: glissando; plural noun: glissandi; plural noun: glissandos
Defined as; a continuous slide upwards or downwards between two notes. The difference here is your slides are brief.
BTW Nice palying
I'm a noob guitarist. I read some music for piano. Should I even bother with tabs? Or learn both while I progress. For sax I prefer just reading the music and re writing it in letters lol. And for harmonica I prefer a tab system they use. I could probably learn guitar tabs too just wondering
Tab only gets you so far, you need to at least be able to read note values in notation to understand the duration of notes which tab alone doesn't give you.
Really nice. What guitar is it you're playing?
This is an Indonesian company named Sjuman Instruments that makes really nice handmade guitars. Check out the review I did on it. You can also find them on Instagram
Do you have any idea what it was like in the 70s trying to learn this stuff off records by ear?
For me it was cassettes, but yeah players these days got it easy
Hi Rick,
I’m pretty much getting a handle on this - great lesson. Could you please do one on using a Wahwah pedal to play funk? I could do with some tips.
How can I improve my funk tone? Using a strat in clean neck pickup with compression
There is no one way to get "funk tone" alot of it is personal preference. I myself dont use compression as I feel it kills dynamics. I like to have my clean tone on the edge of breakup with a good tube amp, even eq, not too bright, nice mids and not muddy. A little reverb. At least that's what works for me.
It s dificult ,à Nice lecon
The link to check out the gear he's using isnt recognized by amazon
Strange, guess its not been active so they must have discontinued it. It shows suhr bella amp xotic ep booster, flint reverb
That was funk’in delicious!! 🍌👍
Thank you!
👍👍

Excuse me, what’s that bridge you got on that guitar?
They are called Ganee pickups, bridge has some real bite
@@TastyGuitarcom thanks for the reply. Although, I wasn’t asking about the pickup, but the actual bridge itself.
I like the saddle design and that it has no rim
@@heiah oh ok, it is made by Aldridge Empire
new guitar? don't remember seeing this one before...
Yeah, I did a review on this guitar a while back, check it out here ruclips.net/video/h4NXqWV-KEU/видео.html
Seems easy but you need first to be possessed by this evil's fonk rhythm! ;-) Great video!
That helps
sa-weet!
