Player Magazine If you're spellbound but mystified by funk guitar, you'll dig this video. Not only can Bolton play greasy grooves, he's able to break out funk's elements and explain how they mesh. With a relaxed delivery, this GIT instructor walks you step by step from basics to burn. You learn pick-hand scratching, fret-hand muting, essential chord shapes, single-note riffing, double-stop fills, tri-tone licks, and how to create both static and moving lines. Bolton demonstrates the difference between straight and swing sixteenth-note grooves and addresses many funk styles, including rhythms inspired by James Brown, Kool & the Gang and Prince. Tips on practicing, getting good tone, and developing strong time round out this excellent package. A pass key to the exciting world of funk guitar. |
